March 12, 200916 yr I have created a managed list that has radio buttons, but I want them oriented under the values not next to them; how do I change the orientation of the buttons to do that?
March 13, 200916 yr Sorry but that is not an option with filemaker. You can make your own using individual radio buttons.
March 13, 200916 yr You can draw them with circle tool or you can make a number of dummy fields and set them as radio buttons. You will have to script the buttons so they act like radio buttons.
March 13, 200916 yr If the radio buttons will be arranged vertically: o o o You can simply shrink the field to the width of the radio button, and then set the paragraph spacing to 3 lines or whatever you like. Then make a separate block of text for the labels, or make individual text blocks for each label and line them up. If the radio buttons will be arranged horizontally, it's a little more work: You'll need to make a separate value list for each value, then make duplicates of the field on the layout and assign one of these value lists to each one. Again, shrink down the fields so only the button is visible, and place your text labels next to the fields.
March 13, 200916 yr Update: it looks like you'll need to use method #2 either way, because the first method will bring the radio buttons on top of the labels which looks bad. See attached file. This solution does not require any scripts. radiobuttons.zip
