Swatches (Multi-Selection) Option

Modified on Sun, 3 May at 10:40 AM

The Swatches (Multi-Selection) Option in the Sellio Product Options app allows customers to select multiple values visually using colors, images, or patterns. This combines the power of multi-selection (like checkboxes) with a highly visual UI (like swatches).

It is ideal for products where customers may want to choose multiple designs, colors, or styles at once.


A Swatches (Multi-Selection) Option displays multiple visual choices where customers can select one, multiple, or all values.

Example:

Choose Your Designs

  • Floral ? (+$5)

  • Abstract ? (+$7)

  • Minimal ⚪ (+$3)

? Customers can select:
✔ Floral
✔ Abstract
(or all options together)
