By selecting a "parent" check box node permission, all children permissions will be granted.

Parent = Field (permission granted)
Children = All activities within the Field module will be granted unless an individual permission is removed.
The permissions check box tree, use a "tri-state click cycle".
  1. If a check box node is empty (empty state), the permission is not granted.
  2. If a check box node is checked (full state), that permission is granted along with all (if any), child permissions are granted as well.
  3. If a check box node is full fully colored (mid state), that permission is granted but, it contains 1 or more child permissions that are NOT granted.
  4. Click an individual check box node to cycle through each state until the appropriate state is applied.
