- Is there a way to disable a layout object such as a thermometer or dial?
- I want to have a layout in which the user selects a radio button (ex:
- Yes) and the thermometer in the layout is disabled. If the No button
- is selected, then I want the termometer the be activated again. Does
- anyone have any ideas on how to do this? I tried the DISABLE BUTTON
- command but this obviously does not work since the object is not a
- button.
-
- Also, how do you set the radio button default in the BEFORE phase of the
- layout? I want the yes button to be selected automatically (thus
- deactivating the thermometer until the user selects NO).
-
- ANY ideas are welcome.
-
- Thanks in advance.
