Can’t get the checked radiobutton

Anonymous — Thu, 06 Oct 2022 11:19:04 GMT

Hey,

I have 3 radio buttons in the same group. In the palette they look good - I can switch between them and the previous checked RadioButton will become unchecked..
But in the code I can’t get or change the status of them. DGselectradio doesn’t work.. also when trying to get the current checked radiobutton I always get 0 (with DGgetcheckedtadio or DGgetitemvallong).
Maybe there was a define or another function I should have called?

Thanks!

Are you passing the ID of the radio group to DGGetCheckedRadio (as opposed to a control index)?

Yep. I set the ID of the group to 1 (and it’s working, the check is switched when checking between different radio buttons). And I’m passing 1 and it doesn’t work

I can only say that it's working normally for us. If you post some source code, it might be possible to spot a reason for it not working in this case.

Could you please post some of your code here? Also, have you tried to use the C++ interface of DG?

Best, Akos

I think it was a syntax mistake. Tried from scratch again and got it working. I think that maybe not using capital letter for my const short checkbox somehow made it stop working..
Also, when using DGGetItemValLong it worked when I uses dialogID but not when used DG_TOP_MODAL

Thanks everyone!
