Options buttons and script

[ludo]

Hello,

How set the "selected" button of a cluster by script.

I try without success :
set the mgoption of grp "xx" to the id of grp "yy" of grp "xx"

xx = the cluster
yy = the button.


The goal is to "reset" alls choices and returns to default value for each controls.

Thanks.

Hi, Ludo.

If you have a cluster of 3 options buttons (Option1, Option2 and Option3), you can select one by;

Code: Select all

send "mouseDown" to group "Option1"

HTH!

Are they really option buttons or are they radio buttons? If they are radio buttons then use either the hilitedButtonName or the hilitedButton.

Code: Select all

set the hilitedButtonName of grp xx to yy

Are they really option buttons ... ?

They are custom buttons

I was having a problem with navigating to a card that contained my mg control group where the correct button wasn't highlighted. This worked for me in the card script:

on opencard
send "mouseDown" to group "Home"
put "Home" into fld "mgcLabel"
end opencard

actually,
put "Home" into fld "mgcLabel"
stopped working, not sure why.

when navigating to card 2 which contains my MobGui control group from my splash card (that does not contain the control group), the title still shows the last tab option and potentially the wrong tab option...

Hi, Roddy. If you're referencing the control components, you can also specify the actual control group;

Code: Select all

put "Home" into fld "mgcLabel" of group "MyButton"

Does this help?
