Is it possible to resize Radio Buttons? I have been poking around with one and believe that it is impossible. I would like to use a row of Radio Buttons to select what screen to display on a touch screen monitor. What is the easiest way to make a row (Array?) of Boolean Controls act like a Radio Button control?

So where's your code? I've been known to create a Cluster of Boolean LEDs (a Cluster, since that allows me to space them as I wish them to look, an LED, as it can be a Control, but can also be programmatically "set", and as a Cluster element, I can also name each of them) for just this purpose ... Don't have one handy at the moment, but I think you get the idea. One of my fancier ones (serving as a "Select Me if Pushed" and "Show Status") used a 6 x 4 Array of these things, each one with a Boolean Reference gathered into an Array of References. The "simple thing" I could do was turn programmatically turn it On or Off (set Value to T or F). I could also "fake a button press" (use Value-signalling). For Status, I changed the Color mapping -- Green (Bright and Dull) was OK, Yellow was Caution, Red was Failing, and Black was "off line" (it didn't have a different "Off" color -- Dead = Dead).

Resize Radio Buttons?

Solved!

I'm good. No need to continue. 😄

The main purpose of this thread was to show that radio button controls are extremely flexible once you know how to customize them. I think I succeeded there 😄
