Hi,

Quick question about querying a radio collection.  Bellow is a simple window, you press the button and it should print the result of the radio collection selection.

I’m not sure the correct way to do this.  Any suggestions?

Thanks!

window -height 240 -width 240 -title “ToolWindow” tlToolWindow;
columnLayout ;

rowLayout -columnWidth4 80 50 50 50 -height 25 -numberOfColumns 4 -width 250;
text “Number of Objects:”;
radioCollection tlRadioCollection;
radioButton -label “None”;
radioButton -label “One”;
radioButton -sl -label “Two”;
setParent ..;

columnLayout ;
separator -h 17 -w 250;
button -height 28 -width 250 -label “print result” -c tlPrintResult ;
separator -h 17 -w 250;
setParent ..;

showWindow;

global proc tlPrintResult()
{
if (`radioCollection -q -select tlRadioCollection` == 1) print “none” ;
if (`radioCollection -q -select tlRadioCollection` == 2) print “one” ;
if (`radioCollection -q -select tlRadioCollection` == 3) print “two” ;
}

You just want to get the label, right?

ok, I figured out a way to do it.  I used -onCommand with a global String to do it. 

I’m still curious how to -query the radioCollection.

Thanks for the help!

Tony

button -label “Print Radio Button” -command ( “getFile2Egg” ) ;

showWindow;

global proc tlRadioButtonOne ()
{
print “one selected” ;
global string $tlRadioButtonValue ;
$tlRadioButtonValue = “one” ;
}

{
print “two selected” ;
global string $tlRadioButtonValue ;
$tlRadioButtonValue = “two” ;

global string $tlRadioButtonValue ;
print $tlRadioButtonValue ;
