Exact & Precise Horizontal & Vertical alignment of Radio Buttons

How can I align RADIO BUTTONS used in a LIKERT SCALE both horizontally (i.e. EXACTLY on the SAME ROW) and vertically (i.e. for each row EXACTLY COLUMN UNDER each other). Using the grid is most clumsy and my buttons appear "wobbly" both horizontally and vertically. The SHIFT and CTRL keys do not seem to help much. SHIFT is horizontally and vertically too coarse (even though the grid has been defined to be very fine) and the CTRL just deforms the button. I need to be able to "nudge" the buttons as can be done in MS/WORD - Mike van der Linde

There are a number of options. One is to set up guides, and fields will snap to them when one of the field borders is brought near. To add a guide, show the rulers (Ctrl+R) and click/drag one from either the horizontal or vertical ruler.
You can also select multiple fields, right-click on one of them, and select the option to align left, bottom, etc. The field that you right-click will be the model or anchor for the others. Other right-click option allow you to set multiple selected fields to the same size (height, width, both) and distribute them horizontally or vertically to they are evenly spaced.

How to set default for "Horizontal / Vertical Alignment"?

Hi,
is there somewhere a setting to change the default of the "Horizontal / Vertical Alignment" property for an item label? I don't like the "Right" alignment and I have to change it each time when I create a new item.
Thanks

Yes, this is one of (many) cases where a Bulk edit feature in the Builder would be very useful. There have been some discussions about this and hopefully the APEX team is considering these for the next release.
Having said that, I frequently find myself taking a full app export and editing the SQL file in my favorite text editor (Vim) and making these little changes.
This is NOT to be done lightly, see the caveats and disclaimers at Re: htmldb application Disabled(on updation of FLOWS_020000.WWV_FLOW_STEP_I
As always, take a backup of the file before modifying it and save it so you can revert back to it if something goes wrong.

Vertical Allignment of Radio Buttons

Hi All,
I am new to OAF.I am creating a OAF page(Questionaire page) which has many questions and each question has 2 Radio buttons as "Yes" and "No" as the answer and aligned horizontally with the question.I am facing an issue with vertical alignment of the Radio buttons.Depending upon the length of the questions radio buttons position is getting changed.I want all the radio buttons to be aligned vertically in a single column.
I have created a header region-->rowlayout(for each question and 2 radio buttons) contains:
> _1 item_ with item style 'MessageStyledText'----- for question
> _2 items_ with item style 'MessageRadioButton'----for 2 radio button
Please guide me to resolve this issue.

Aligning Quiz Radio Buttons

Quiz radio buttons in my Captivate 3 project are appearing in
the published/previewed version slightly above the quiz answers,
rather than either aligned to the top or middle of the answers. It
looks really awkward, but I am not finding any way to change the
alignment of these radio buttons. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Did you find a solution? I think I am having a similar issue. See here: Everything changes when previewed or published - why?
Does yours look similar to my issue?
Thanks

"horizontal/vertical align center" relative to one object, not the average

Hello!
I see in Illustrator, if i select 2 objects and i choose to align them relative to their centers, both objects will move to the middle point of the distance between their original positions.
Is there a way to make just one of them move?
Am i able to center one object to another object that is already in its final position?
thanks a lot!

i tried it, but it doesn't work. here's what i did:
-selected one object
-shift-selected the other one
-clicked horizontal align center
both objects moved

Adobe Captivate - Multiple Choice Quiz Question - Radio Button and Text Alignment

I have created a quiz with multiple choice questions.
No matter what I do I cannot align the radio button and the text for the choices (see below).
I would like to align the center of the radio button with the center of the letter A) and B).
I have tried every option that I can think of in the Properties options.
Please let me know if anyone has a solution for this.
Thank you

Thanks for the reply.
Previously I tried several different combinations of fonts and font sizes, but didn't see any change.
Does anyone else know of anything else that could effect this situation?

Flash Radio Buttons

Okay, I give up, I've searched online and in several forums,
pored through
the Director documentation, and can't find a single tutorial
explaining how
exactly to use the Flash component Radio Buttons in Director.
And
apparently I'm not alone, about all I could find was another
post in this
group from over a month ago asking the same question without
getting a
single response. (Also found a few other questions regarding
them in other
forums, but one thing I didn't find anywhere was anyone
actually *answering*
these questions.) Do I have to actually use Flash to get
these to work?
Assume for a moment that I know exactly nothing about Flash
(not far from
the truth). What exactly do you have to do to make the other
buttons
automatically deselect when you click one? According to what
little
documentation there is in the Director help files, this
should happen
automatically, but apparently I'm missing something, because
it doesn't.
This was relatively simple with the old classic Radio
Buttons, and I'm
seriously considering just going back to using those (never
mind the
primitive graphics), or maybe just scripting my own from
scratch. (It's not
really that complicated a behavior, and at this point it
seems like it would
be easier than trying to use what seems to be an almost
completely
undocumented feature...)

The Flash Components are not documented in Director, though
they are
documented in Flash. If you can parse the dense and difficult
to
understand Flash Help file (and yes, you would need to have
Flash to get
it), then you can see all the docs for those components.
Before I go much further, I should say that in my experience,
using
#flashComponents is a painful and tedious business. I do not
recommend
it. It will probably be MUCH easier on you in the long run if
you write
your own script from scratch.
But, for the sake or archival completeness, this is a script
that will
do what you want with the checkbox/radio button
#flashComponents:
1) Go into the Property Inspector and on the FlashComponent
tab for each
member, make sure that the eventPassMode is set to
#passAlways
2) Put this code onto the buttons:
on mouseUp me
if sprite(me.spriteNum).selected then
sendAllSprites(#deselect,me.spriteNum)
end if
end
on deselect me, vExcept
if me.spriteNum<>vExcept then
sprite(me.spriteNum).selected=0
end if
end

OBIEE 11g Radio Button Value show horizontally instead of vertically

Hi,
Can the Radio Buttons Prompt values in OBIEE 11g be shown horizontally instead of vertically on a dashboard prompt.
Thanks
Kathy

I cannot find it in the out of the box functionality. I think it might be possible with some custom programming which I do not have time to investigate.
If somebody has done this, please let us know if it is possible.

How to Horizontally Arrange Radio Buttons

Is there a way to arrange radio buttons in form central horizontally, rather than the default vertical arrangement?

Add Item ~ single choice field ~ that will drop a couple of radio buttons in, stacked vertically ~ hover mouse over the right side dotted border around the whole element and you should see two short vertical bars appear, which indicate you can stretch the border to the right ~ left click and drag the dotted border to the right (allow plenty of space) ~ look at the 'Field Properties' on the right hand side ~ untick 'stack choices vertically'.
Hope that makes sense - it does work, honest, so if you have a problem it's my poor explanation, so come back to me.

Why does Vertical Align Center align objects along the horizontal?

And why does Horizontal Align Center align objects along the vertical?
-g-
P.S. Please please please make the Eydropper tool available by function key so I can toggle to it while using the Text tool. Please!

g,
but when I select two objects and click the vertical align button they snap to an invisible horizontal line
This is (almost) identical to:
Because (the centres of) vertically aligned objects will be on the same horizontal level/line.
And that is just one way of expressing what vertical alignment means. Here are a few others:
Their centres have the same height,
Their centres have the same Y value on the Artboard/Workspace,
In all cases, you can draw a horizontal line through their centres.
Mathematically, Y = C (Y is a constant value C) is the equation for a horizontal line.

Best way to align text with checkboxes/radio buttons?

Is there a better way to align text and checkboxes/radio
buttons than using
tables with vertically-centered cells?
Reason being, well... you've all tried putting text next to
those form
inputs, right? They don't naturally align.

Thanks, but nothing there really answers my question. :-(

How to put radio buttons horizontally?

Hi All,
I am using RadioButtonGroupByKey.But its coming vertically.I want this to be displayed horizontally.Please help me soon.
thanx
anirudh

Bind the RadioButtonGroupByKey.<i>selectedKey </i>property to a context attribute of type "string" (or DDIC simple type with valueset).
You can either use the static valueset from the DDIC type or modify the valueset at runtime.
To modify it, use code like
IWDAttributeInfo info = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getAttribute("<name-of-attribute>");
IModifiableSimpleValueSet valueSet = info.getModifiableSimpleType().getSVServices().getModifiableSimpleValueSet();
valueSet.clear();
valueSet.put("<key1>", "<value1>");
valueSet.put("<key2>", "<value2>");
valueSet.put("<key3>", "<value3>");
Then you will get 3 radio buttons displaying "value1", "value2", "value3". Selecting a button will set the context attribute to the corresponding key.
Set RadioButtonGroupByKey.<i>colCount </i>= 3 to get them in one row.

Can 3 vertical Radio Buttons span 3 rows in a table? AND how to make form highlight when radio butto

I am trying to add 3 grouped vertical radio buttons where one is on each line of a 3 row table. When I group the 3 buttons it squeezes them into one row, is there a way I can have them grouped and one in each.
Also, I would like to know how to make part of the form highlight when one of the 3 buttons is selected

Hi,
If I am not wrong, a table cell can hold only one component or none. In order to place the radio group to different positions vertically, you can use subforms instead of table.

Is there a way to automatically align and make same size of check boxes/ radio-buttons like in the image below?

I create PDF forms on daily basis for multiple people around but still, I create a table in Word and then manually convert it to PDF. I'm using Acrobat X and then I manually create radio buttons or check boxes in each cell of the table so aligning those buttons or check-boxes in the same line is a problem. I know there would be some solution to this but can anyone guide me to that? Also, making the same size of the radio-buttons of check boxes likewise ? ? ?
Please see the image above and advise how to align them in the same line and how to make them same size using Acrobat X?
Your help appreciated.

You should create these fields using the Place Multiple Fields command, so that they are aligned properly and all the same size. Read about it here:
