Regarding Radio Buttons

[malli]

Dear All, 

I want to change the value of a radio button. I mean to make the value of a radio buttons false, meaning the LED of radio button should be invisible. When the user clicks only, the value of a radio button should be true.

I have made the value of a radio buttons invisible, but still the LED is visible.

How can i do that in LabView? 

Thanks in Advance.

Regards

Malleswari

attach your VI, Its a button u can make it true/False. If the button is ON then it differentiate with a green dot(u mentioned as LED) is visible then it is true and if the LED is not visible then the value is false. What do u mean by invisible?

AFAIK, Radio buttons dont have LEDs associated with them.

Can you post a picture of your VI here?

NOT visible or HIDDEN.

Is this in any way related to this question? Why not keep everything in one thread?

You need to explain better. There are several radio buttons and the one from the system palette is less customizable. The one from the classic palette is a bit ugly, but much more flexible. For example you can make the false case entirely transparent.

Can you attach a small VI showing which radio button you are using and indicating what you mean by "LED" and what parts you want transpareent.

Reading the other tread, maybe what you need is a radio button control (boolean palette, bottom right). You can fill it with a bunch of plain LEDs that have the FALSE case entirely transparent and only the TRUE case showing, for example. By the magic of the radiobutton container, only one will be TRUE (and thus visible) at any give time.
