Radio Buttons and Event Structures

Guys, I am hoping for some help here on something I probably should know but cant figure out how to do. I am using a set of radio buttons and an event structure to run a UI. The radio buttons are acting as both a user input and indicator of current status selected by the user. I have the event structure set to run on value change of the radio button. All works great unless the operator decides that he wants to repeat the selection that the radio button is already set to. The event structure does not recognize this as a change of value and will not execute. Is there a way to set the event structure up to run even if the same selection of the radio button is made a second time? I attached a crude example to this post. Basically everytime I press the button, I want an entry made into the text box, regardless if the selected item was already pressed. Any thoughts.

Instead of hacking around the inherent nature of radio buttons, why not just use a Cluster? Its behavior in the UI is more customizable. Check this out:
I just replaced your radio buttons with a cluster, and added a little logic to the event structure to get it to behave the way you describe. I've attached the VI below, saved in 8.2, if you want to try it out.
Hope this helps,

Array of buttons and Event Structure

I have a the same problem... I was wondering if you were able to find a soln.
I have literally thousands of buttons and each button as a unique key code and unique name.
For Example :
Button Name    – Key code #
PUSH              - 1
POP                 - 2
PULL               - 3
The way I program this simple algorithm is deadly painful.
1)      I create 1000 buttons by going to control->buttons.
2)      Then I have to go through one by one to change the Boolean text to “PUSH,POP,PULL…”
3)      Then used the Event Structure, adding in all the controls names “PUSH, POP, PULL..” In side each event, I placed the key codes “1,2,3..”
I have search and tried for weeks to find a better way, and still nothing comes to mind.
Please help.

Hi Ben,
Thank you for your reply, I have attached my try_code and a picture of the code I currently have.  I am new in Labview, but I am confident that, there must be a easier way to make an array of buttons with different button name and an associated number to that button.
The 1st file, is to show you want I am currently doing, (painful)
The 2nd file attached is some of the things i tried, I had great hope with my try_code, array_jan25. But I couldn't get it. I think I am very close.
Thanks again,

How do I modify the problem?
Thank you for your help.

Yes they can coexist, but not how you did it.
Every iteration of the while loop you wait for an event in the event structure, and you look if the user has selected anything from the menu.
To get this working you should add an event for <this VI>\Menu Selection (User):
Ton
PS you should add a stop button, the only way you can stop the VI is hitting the 'emergency stop' button, with hardware connected (like you have) this is not the adviced routine

Dynamic radio button and group

Hi, we have create dynamic radio button and group on “application creation complete” event , but which I am try to get number of radio button its show zero, see below code
import flash.utils.setTimeout;
import mx.controls.Alert;
import mx.events.FlexEvent;
import spark.components.RadioButton;
import spark.components.RadioButtonGroup;
private var rbg:RadioButtonGroup;
private var rb1:RadioButton;
private var rb2:RadioButton;
private var dcount:int = 0;
protected function application1_creationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void
     // TODO Auto-generated method stub
     // TODO Auto-generated method stub
     rb1 = new RadioButton();
     rb2 = new RadioButton();
     rbg = new RadioButtonGroup();
     rb1.label = "Radio1";
     rb2.label = "Radio2";
     rb1.group = rbg;
     rb2.group = rbg;
     vbox1.addChild(rb1);
     vbox1.addChild(rb2);
     checkRadioButton ();
protected function checkRadioButton ():void
     Alert.show("In checkRadioButton function : " + rb1.group.numRadioButtons.toString());
If I put some Time interval to call checkRadioButton function its working fine,
//checkRadioButton ();
setTimeout(checkRadioButton,1000);
but this is not best practice.
why this happen ….can anybody clear this or any other way to do this.
Thanks in advance

@manjeet.patel,
Just write the below line of code
vbox1.validateNow();
You need not use setTimeout() function
vbox1.addChild(rb1);
vbox1.addChild(rb2);
vbox1.validateNow();
Thanks,

Help with cfinput radio button and text fields

I have a series of radio buttons that allow a user to select
monetary values but I also want them to be able to define an amount
if they choose so. I was planning on doing this by providing a
radio button with the value of other and then using a text field to
allow the user to enter the monetary value. The problem with this
is that they might enter a user defined monetary value but forget
to set the radio button to "other".
I was hoping that I could set the "other" text input field to
read only until the point that the user selects the "other" radio
button. Is there a way to do this using onSelect or another method.
Or is there a better way to approach this problem? Thanks for any
help or advice in advance.

Hi,
You could call a js function which will select the radio
button "other " when the user types something in(there are various
events on cfinput). This way the user will not have to worry about
selecting the radio button and your requirement will be satisfied.
Hope this Helps.
Thanks,
Bhakti

How to create popup window with radio buttons and a input field

Hi Guys,
Can somebody give some directions to create a stand alone program to create a window popup with 2 radio button and an input field for getting text value. I need to update the text value in a custom table.
I will call this stand alone program from an user exit.
Please give me the guidance how go about it or please give any tutorial you have.
Thanks,
Mini

Hi,
There are multiple aspects of your requirements. So let's take them one at a time.
You can achieve it in the report program or you can use a combination of the both along.
You can create a standalone report program using the ABAP Editor (SE38). In the report program you can call the SAP Module pool program by CALL Screen <screen number>. And then in the module pool program you an create a subscreen and can handle the window popup with 2 radio button and an input field for getting the text.
For help - Module Pool programs you can search in ABAP Editor with DEMODYNPRO* and you will ge the entire demo code for all dialog related code.
For Report and other Module pool help you can have a look at the following:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/47/a1ff9b8d0c0986e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm

Radio button and group

Hi All,
Not quite follow what dev guide says about radio button and group implementation.
I tried but always got strange behavior.
I have a subtab with two radio buttons (rbt1 and rbt2)
rbt1 property defined as:
Initial Value: Y
Checked Value: Y
Unchecked Value: N
rbt2 property defined as:
Initial Value: Y
Checked Value: N
Unchecked Value: Y
Also, In my subtab PR, I init these two bts as a group:
OAMessageRadioButtonBean colButton1 =
(OAMessageRadioButtonBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("rbt1");
colButton1.setName("colGroup");
colButton1.setSelectedValue("Y");
OAMessageRadioButtonBean colButton2 =
(OAMessageRadioButtonBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("rbt2");
colButton2.setName("colGroup");
colButton2.setSelectedValue("N");
When the subtab render first time, rbt1 is checked and rbt2 is unchecked as expected. but when I go to other subtab then come back, the rbt1 is unchecked and rbt2 is checked (switch automatically).
The subtab PR is the only place I set this radio button value and group as showing above. Somewhere wrong with my logic or setting?
Regards,
KJ

Hi All,
Got issue resolved. When I was replying Ranjit previous post, I mentioned both of buttons bind to same VO attribute. Since the first rbt1 has defined checked and unchecked values (Y & N) and both of buttons are defined in same group, so I took off second rbt2 attribute binding then it works (won't switch automatically anymore).
I still defined init values for both of buttons and also removed setSelectedValue() method calls from PR.
Thanks again for the great helping.

Please help! How can I validate Radio Buttons and List Menu with PHP.

Hello everyone, I have been learning PHP step by step and
making little projects.
The point is I find it easy to learn by doing "practical
projects."
I have been reading the David Powers's Book on PHP Solutions
and it's really great, however there is nothing mentioned regarding
Validating Radio buttons. I know the book cannot cover every aspect
of PHP and maybe someone in here can help.
I have been learning how to process HTML forms with PHP.
The problem is every book or tutorial I have read or
encountered fall short on validation.
I'm wondering how I can learn to validate Radio Buttons and
Select List Menu.
I have managed to create validation for all other fields but
have no clue as to how I can get validation for Radio Buttons and
List Menu.
I would also like an error message echoed when the user does
not click a button or make a selection and try to submit the form.
I would appreciate any help.
Patrick

It's not that default value is "None." In fact it's not. It
will only be
"none" when the form is submitted.
Also if your submit button is names 'send' then
$_POST['send'] will only be
set if the form was submitted.
Make sure you didn't hit the refresh button on your browser
which usually
reposts the information. Also make sure you did not reach the
form from
another form with the same button names.
Otherwise paste the snippet.
Also you can check what fields are set in the post array by
adding this to
the top of (or anywhere on) your page:
print_r($_POST);

Check boxes, Radio Buttons, and XML Field Order

I am working with Adobe Designer Version 7.0. Hopefully this forum can still address my issues.
I am creating a registration form that will often be submitted via email to us for processing. To help make the data both easy to transfer for us into our excel file and to minimize the errors made by the people using the form, I need the form to be able to do a couple of things that I am having a hard time figuring out. My questions are the following:
I have a list of 7 check boxes that each insert a dollar value into a seperate numeric field on the form. Each check box has a unique dollar value associated with it. Is there any way to design the form so the user can only choose one of the check boxes? I tried using radio buttons in a group, but if a user mistakenly chose the wrong radio button and then selected another button from that group, it would add to the total in the Application Fee field and not subtract out the previous amount. Below is the code i used for one of the check boxes.
I have two numeric fields that the user must choose one or the other. Can I design those two fields (numHomes and numBuildings) so that if the you enter a value for one field, you cannot enter a value for the other field? Both fields are then calcuated in a seperate numeric field. Below is the code i used for the numeric field.
I want to be able to take the data emailed to us as an XML file when a user submits the results via email and directly paste it into our Excel file. To keep the cut and paste process simple, I want to make sure the order of the XML fields matches the order of the database fields so it can be done in one shot. Do you know how to organize the XML fields? They do not seem to correspond to the ordering found under the Hierarchy tab. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks
if (this.rawValue == 1) then
numAppFee.rawValue = numAppFee.rawValue + 350;
else
numAppFee.rawValue = numAppFee.rawValue - 350;
endif
numHomes * 50 + numBuildings * 100 + numDups * 10

Create an XML Schema (XSD) and define that as the default form schema. The form data will conforms to the order of fields defined in the XML schema.
Hope that helps.

Captivate 8, knowledge check radio buttons and check boxes not diplaying correctly in HTML5

Hello. I am working in Cp 8 on a pc (Win 7, 64-bit) and publishing in HTML5, SCORM 2004, 3rd ed. My issue is with knowledge checks. In preview they look fine, but when published, the radio buttons and check boxes are oversized and do not appear as they should. Additionally, the rollover highlight that covers the distracters is skewed and does not cover all the text in cases of long answer choices. When published as a SWF, there are no issues but project requirements are for HTML5 output only. Help?

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?
