Hello,
maybe somone can help me with this little problem.
I have a Groupbox with several RadioButtens in it. Then I added a RadShortCut to the GroupBox and I want the first RadioButton in that GroupBox to be focused.
This works in principle, the RadioButton gets the focus, but the cues are not shown for the focused RadioButton. This is not the expected behaviour, so the user cannot see that he has entered the GroupBox.
Only when using the TAB key to move to the GroupBox the cues are shown. I want to show the cues programmatically. Is there an option to do that?
I used the following code:
Thank you for any hint.
Cheers Roberto

I used the following code:
Imports Telerik.WinControls Public Class Test4 Private Sub Test4_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load ThemeResolutionService.ApplicationThemeName = "Desert" RadGroupBox1.HeaderText = "<html><u>R</u>adGroupBox1" RadGroupBox1.RootElement.Shortcuts.Add(New RadShortcut(Keys.Alt, Keys.R)) AddHandler RadGroupBox1.RootElement.Click, AddressOf RadGroupBox1_Click End Sub Private Sub RadGroupBox1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles RadGroupBox1.Click RadRadioButton1.Focus() End Sub End Class
Thank you for any hint.
Cheers Roberto

Hello Roberto Wenzel,
Thank you for writing.
This is a known issue which is already logged into our PITS system and we will address it in one of our future releases.
Meanwhile, you can inherit the RadRadioButton control and override its ShowFocusCues property to work around the issue. In addition, you should override the ThemeClassName property in order to enable themes for the inherited control:
Please let me know if this works for you.
Best wishes,

Hello Stefan,
thank you very much for your help.
Yes, Your solution works in general. Unfortunatelly I already have dozens of RadioButtons with handlers and code behind etc.
It would be a lot of work to recreate everything. Maybe I wait for an official fix. Or is there a possibilty to convert my existing RadioButtons to the new 'FocusCueButton' ?
Cheers Roberto

Hi Roberto,
The easiest option in this case is to do a multiple Find - Replace in your project and replace all radio buttons with a FocusCueButton. Like Stefan said, this issue will be addressed in one of our upcoming releases.
If you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us.
