Radio Button Useage

[Swimming_Bird]

I was wondering how you tie radio buttons together so that you can designate that of this set of buttons only one can be checked while leaving another set of buttons of which only 1 of them can be checked.

I saw no such grouping in the example from the help file

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate("My GUI radio") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

$radio1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio 1", 10, 10, 120, 20)
GUICtrlSetState ($radio1,$GUI_CHECKED)
$radio2 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio 2", 10, 40, 120, 20)

*** straight from beta help

#include <GUIconstants.au3>

Opt("GUICoordMode", 1)

GUICreate("Radio Box Grouping Demo", 400,280)

; Create the controls

$button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("B&utton 1", 30, 20, 120, 40)

$group_1 = GUICtrlCreateGroup ("Group 1", 30, 90, 165, 160)

GUIStartGroup()

$radio_1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &0", 50, 120, 70, 20)

$radio_2 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &1", 50, 150, 60, 20)

$radio_3 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &2", 50, 180, 60, 20)

GUIStartGroup()

$radio_4 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &A", 120, 120, 70, 20)

$radio_5 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &B", 120, 150, 60, 20)

$radio_6 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio &C", 120, 180, 60, 20)

GUIStartGroup()

$input_1 = GUICtrlCreateInput ("Input 1", 200, 20, 160, 30)

$input_2 = GUICtrlCreateInput ("Input 2", 200, 70, 160, 30)

; Set the defaults (radio buttons clicked, default button, etc)

GUICtrlSetState($radio_1, $GUI_CHECKED)

GUICtrlSetState($radio_6, $GUI_CHECKED)

GUICtrlSetState($button_1, $GUI_FOCUS + $GUI_DEFBUTTON)

; Init our vars that we will use to keep track of radio events

$radioval1 = 0 ; We will assume 0 = first radio button selected, 2 = last button

$radioval2 = 2

GUISetState ()

; In this message loop we use variables to keep track of changes to the radios, another

; way would be to use GUICtrlRead() at the end to read in the state of each control. Both

; methods are equally valid

While 1

$msg = GUIGetMsg()

Select

Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Exit

Case $msg = $button_1

MsgBox(0, "Button", "Radio " & $radioval1 & @LF & "Radio " & Chr($radioval2 + Asc("A")) & @LF & GUICtrlRead($input_1) & @LF & GUICtrlRead($input_2))

Case $msg = $radio_1 OR $msg = $radio_2 OR $msg = $radio_3

$radioval1 = $msg - $radio_1

Case $msg = $radio_4 OR $msg = $radio_5 OR $msg = $radio_6

$radioval2 = $msg - $radio_4

EndSelect

WEnd
