I have a UI design problem.

I have four checkboxes, each one is one function and whenever one is
selected, the other checkboxes should be invalid (unchecked).
You may say radio boxes are the best choice, but I must allow all
checkboxes unchecked, that's to say, the user can leave all checkboxes
unchecked.

I have two solutions:

1, Add another checkbox to control the state and change the four
checkboxes to radio boxes, that checkbox controls the enable/disable of
the radio boxes. However, such solution require the user two clicks to
select a function. Those functions are often used and I hope the user
can do one click to select.

Oh, come on now!

Convert them to radio buttons. Add a 5th button *IN* the group that
says "None".
