This should be extremely simple, but I'm finding so little about it online that I'm beginning to sadly think it might not be possible. All I want is to create a checklist in google sheets, the same way you can in virtually any word processing program, and have it live in a single cell and have the values be easily customized. Instead, what I'm seeing mostly is a single checkbox per cell. Is there any way to do this, or am I kind of screwed?

Example of what I'd like to accomplish, inside a single cell, preferably in a simple fashion (this ultimately is going to be used to track QA tasks for designers, so the less technical, the better, short of initial setup which will be handled by me).

• [x] Item 1
• [ ] Item 2

having multiple fully functional checkboxes per one single cell is not possible. you will either need to give up on functionality (ability to check it and uncheck it on a whim) or the whole idea. fake checkboxes are of course possible with a script or even internal formula.

Simple, nontechnical

Change the cell left border color to white.
