Group Title and Border?

Post by sritcp » Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:14 pm

Hi:

The LiveCode User Guide (fig 38, p 107) shows "Group of radio buttons with group title and border" with the title reverse printed on the title bar which has the border color. But there seems to be no way to do this; the group inspector has no options for this. My group simply shows the title above and the radio buttons underneath.

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Sri.

Hi Dixie:
Thanks for your suggestion. But setting the label does not give me the title border bar effect (see attached image). I have set the border color to blue in the inspector. No luck still.

Hi Sri,

what you get is actually correct. It is the group with border and title.

What you see in the User Guide is the group (as above) on a stack. It is a small stack and could be a substack to make choices. The "decorations" ( -> User Guide p. 102) you see are only for stacks, not for objects.
That is probably why Dixie wrote: set the label of the STACK, because I guess he thought you wanted to know how to get "Radio Group" into the stack title.

Kind regards
Bernd
