Dynamic RadButton Issue

[John]

Hi,

I am dynamically creating radButton and Setting ButtonToggleType is radio and then Adding to the Pannel.But the problem is radButton is not showing like a radio button but shown as a normal button. Kindly look at my code and attachment and advise me to rectify the issue. Thanks in advance.

John.

For Each objChannel As TranChannel In _alChannels
              Dim RadButton1 As New RadButton()
              RadButton1.ID = objChannel.TranChannelCode
              RadButton1.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButton1.Width = "100"
              RadButton1.ToggleType = ButtonToggleType.Radio
              RadButton1.ButtonType = RadButtonType.StandardButton
              RadButton1.GroupName = "StandardButton"
              Dim RadButtonToglle As New RadButtonToggleState()
              RadButtonToglle.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButtonToglle.PressedCssClass = "rbToggleRadioChecked"
              RadButton1.ToggleStates.Add(RadButtonToglle)
              Dim RadButtonToglle1 As New RadButtonToggleState()
              RadButtonToglle1.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButtonToglle1.PressedCssClass = "rbToggleRadio"
              RadButton1.ToggleStates.Add(RadButtonToglle1)
              AddHandler RadButton1.Click, AddressOf RadButton1_Click
              pnlRadio.Controls.Add(RadButton1)
          Next

Hi John,

After inspecting your code I found that you are setting the ButtonType of RadButton as StandardButton. Please make sure that you are setting the ButtonType of RadButton as ToggleButton to show a RadioButton.

VB:

RadButton1.ButtonType = RadButtonType.ToggleButton

Hi John,

Try the following code snippet.

VB:

For Each objChannel As TranChannel In _alChannels
              Dim RadButton1 As New RadButton()
              RadButton1.ID = objChannel.TranChannelCode
              RadButton1.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButton1.Width =  Unit.Pixel(100)
              RadButton1.ToggleType = ButtonToggleType.Radio
              RadButton1.ButtonType = RadButtonType.ToggleButton
              RadButton1.GroupName = "StandardButton"
              Dim RadButtonToglle As New RadButtonToggleState()
              RadButtonToglle.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButtonToglle.PressedCssClass = "rbToggleRadioChecked"
              RadButton1.ToggleStates.Add(RadButtonToglle)
              Dim RadButtonToglle1 As New RadButtonToggleState()
              RadButtonToglle1.Text = objChannel.Description
              RadButtonToglle1.PressedCssClass = "rbToggleRadio"
              RadButton1.ToggleStates.Add(RadButtonToglle1)
              AddHandler RadButton1.Click, AddressOf RadButton1_Click
              pnlRadio.Controls.Add(RadButton1)
Next

But I expect the behaviour of radio button like attached file Expected behaviour.If I place a control is design it is working fine. when i create a control dynamically, I am facing an issue.kindly help.

Hello John,

That is the expected rendering when using ToggleButton and Radio Button together. The closest I can get to that button style is using the LinkedButton appearance. If that's alright with you, you could add the following to you RadButton's.

RadButton.CssClass = "rbLinkButton";

I tried with the normal button skin class, but it doesn't work with the rendering that is outputted when using the ToggleButton type.

I hope that helps.
