Set specific radiobutton value

[John Fonesca]

Hello,

I have a radio button group (called "GroupGender") with 3 radio buttons :

- Male
- Female
- Unspecified

How can i set the value for the second value (for example) ?

I've tried

Field f = document.GetField("GroupGender");
f.SetValue(true);

Is there a way to specify the index / specific option name here ?

Thanks,
John

The following should work, but only if "Female" matches one of the appearance states. It might be something else like "Option1".

Field f = document.GetField("GroupGender");

f.SetValue("Female");

To query the appearance states, use the following code.

static string GetOnState(Field field)
{
    Widget widget = new Widget(field.GetSDFObj());
    Obj normal_app_dict = null;
    Obj widget_object = widget.GetSDFObj();
    Obj appearances_dict = widget_object.FindObj("AP");
    if (appearances_dict != null) normal_app_dict = appearances_dict.FindObj("N");
    if (normal_app_dict != null && normal_app_dict.IsDict())
    {
        for (DictIterator itr = normal_app_dict.GetDictIterator(); itr.HasNext(); itr.Next())
        {
            Obj key = itr.Key();
            if (key != null && key.IsName())
            {
                string key_name = key.GetName();
                if(String.Compare(key_name, "off", true) != 0)
                {
                    return key_name;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    throw new Exception("Error getting on value for field");
}

Generally each radio button will have two states. "Off" and then the on value, such as "Female".
