Hi,

I would like to use a set of radio buttons and have them render using the 'button' appearance (i.e. instead of the default circular checkbox appearance).  For a normal Winforms System.Windows.Forms.RadioButton control, this is accomplished by setting the RadioButton.Appearance property to 'Button'.  However, the Telerik RadRadioButton control does not have that property.  How can this be accomplished with the Telerik radio button control?

Thanks!

Hello Darren,

I think that you are looking for a RadToggleButton. This is a button that behaves as a RadRadioButton. Check this button and let me know if it works for you.

Does the RadToggleButton provide a way to automatically handle mutual-exclusivity?  I am using radio buttons because only one button can be selected at a time.

The RadToggleButton does not support group behavior similar to the RadRadioButton. You could implement this functionality in code. You can subscribe to the ToggleStateChanged event of the toggle buttons that you want to be in a group and change their state when one of them is toggled.

After a brief discussion on your side, we agreed that your request is meaningful. That is why I have logged this in our Feedback Portal on your behalf. You can vote for its implementation and follow the feedback item so that you can receive status notification changes. Your Telerik Points are updated for bringing this to our attention.
