How to ForEach into nested \fbox, \vbox, \hbox

Post by teer »

So I have this Eisenhower square that will contain checkboxes (see attachment)
How do I then add items to it? itemize does not play well inside f/v/hboxes.

Ideally, I'd like to have a \newcommand with items delimited by a comma ','
which I could then pass as a parameter to get ForEach'd into items (see commented ForEach statement in \eisenbox)
I am reluctant to switch to tabular or tikz because getting to what I current have was no easy feat.

But I am new to LaTeX and nothing seems to work.
Any help would be very much appreciated!
