Toggle Button Group

[Joe]

Is it possible to set up a group of toggle buttons such that only one button can be checked at a time?

Hello Joseph,

Thank you for contacting us.

Please, find the attached sample project. It contains three RadToggleButtons and handles their Click events. Each time a RadToggleButton is clicked, the state of the rest of the RadToggleButtons are changed to Off. This implies that only one button at a time can have a ToggleState On. At the same time all of the buttons may have a ToggleState Off. I hope the sample project demonstrates the desired behavior. If you encounter any issues, do not hesitate to contact me back.

Sincerely yours,

I think the RadToggleButton could provide an official property to complete the job like that :

ToggleGroupID (Toggle the grouped button automatically), etc.

 Programmers would no need to write lots/duplicated code.

If you had made your RadRadioButton work like native winforms RadioButton (allow to change appearance), then this would work already.  From what I can tell, there is no way to change the appearance of a RadRadioButton to be either a check box or a button (Toggle). I agree with Chris, they should auto link, like the native radio buttons do.

Hello Mark, 

Thank you for writing.  

RadToggleButton is not designed to behave like a native RadioButton. Your feedback is greatly appreciated. We will consider it in the future controls' improvement. Meanwhile, feel free to use the suggested approach by Boryana. 

I hope this information helps. Should you have further questions I would be glad to help.
