Radio button

The "Radio Button" control is one of the basic controls. It consists of individual options grouped together. The user can select only one of the options in the browser. The value of the selected option is stored as text in the data field that is automatically created when the element is created and can be linked to the element.

The values of the radio button can be saved using the corresponding button.

You can find the radio button element in the "Applications" module under "Elements. " You can create a new radio button by dragging and dropping the element from here onto the workspace.

For more information on creating elements, click here.

The Properties dialog box for a radio button opens automatically when a new radio button is created. The Properties dialog box for an existing text field can be opened by double-clicking the element on the workspace, selecting "Properties" from the context menu, or selecting "Edit / Properties" from the main menu, provided that the checkbox on the workspace is selected.

New Data Field
