About RadioButtons

[Baileys]

Hello

I have a problem with radio buttons. It does not display well in the Designer, when the associated text is in the constructor. The text only displays with a radiobutton.SetText.

I have a problem with radio buttons. It does not display well in the Designer, when the associated text is in the constructor. The text only displays with a radiobutton.SetText.

Can you provide an example?

I tried the following and it displayed the text just fine:

Code: Select all

final JRadioButton abcRadioButton = new JRadioButton("ABC");
abcRadioButton.setBounds(10, 10, 50, 25);
getContentPane().add(abcRadioButton);

Hello,

I changed my shortcut for launching Eclipse 3.1 by passing the jdk 1.5 in the command line.

It works fine now.

Thanks

Hallo,
I'm in Eclipse and SWTDesigner a total new beginner, and I have the same problem. . The problem is that I do not check what you have done to solve this problem.

So please can you show me the step I have to do to solve this problem ?

Please describe i detail exactly what problem you are having and provide a test case.

I try SWT-designer by doing your demo example "swing example". But when I'm on the part to create the group ("ButtonGroup") over the two radio-buttons, nothing happens.
No group will be created. ?

How are you creating the group?

All you need to do is drop a button group onto one of the buttons. That will create a button group in the component tree. You can then drag that button group onto the other buttons, or drag the buttons onto the group.

Hello Mr. Clayberg,

this is exactly my problem. When I do so (just as you described ) nothing happens

So I thought it could help, when I do the same as Baileys did.

"... Eclipse 3.1 by passing the jdk 1.5 in the command line ..."

but I don't how to do this.


I use following components

WBP 4.2.0 Build 2005.10.29
Eclipse 3.1.1 Build M20050929-0840
Java SE Build 1.5.0_04-b05

[Eric Clayberg]

JDK 1.5 is not required for ButtonGroups to work and the problem you describe is not related to the original problem described in this thread.

What do you mean by "nothing happens"? Are any exceptions recorded to your Eclipse ".log" file?

Can you drop a ButtonGroup on the frame itself in the component tree?

[fabax]

Hello Mister Clayberg,

At the moment I am really a little bit helpless. I followed your advice and checked the ".log" File in Eclipse by deleting this file first and than do this "operation".
first try
1) mark the radiobutton SWT
2) click on ButtonGroup ( the PLUS Mouse Icon is shown )
3) move the mouse to property editor swtRadioButton('SWT")
4) release the mouse ... and ... nothing

second try
1) mark the ButtonGroup
2) an click direct on the content pane ... the same effect.

1) mark the radiobutton SWT
2) click on ButtonGroup ( the PLUS Mouse Icon is shown )
3) move the mouse to property editor swtRadioButton('SWT")
4) release the mouse ... and ... nothing

Releasing the mouse button in the property editor isn't going to do anything.

You need to drop the radio button group either onto the radio button itself (either in the design view or the component tree) or you can drop it on the frame itself in the component tree.
