Edit the custom field and mark it as required. Then you won't have to "empty" option.
Still, the custom field will be displayed with 2 radio buttons, do you think that a checkbox is better?

Thank you for letting me know how to turn "empty" option off.

• Radio buttons requires more spaces on the screen than check boxes.
• It is hard for me to imagine a situation in need of "empty" option for boolean and I am afraid that three values for boolean is quite confusing.

Who says checkboxes can only have two states :D

I find that displaying radio buttons after choosing checkboxes is a bit misleading. You could provide both options.

Some people might see the following better as radio:

Did you find this helpful? [ ] Yes [ ] No [ ] N/A

[ ] Did you find this helpful?

I agree with GO Maeda.
When the type is "checkbox" it should be a checkbox, but for other cases or preferences you could add radio buttons a additonal displayoption.

Confirmed that checkbox became available again. Thanks a lot!
