Re: Setting menuHistory of a group of option buttons

Hi. A group does not have a menyHistory property. So what you really are doing is using a change in the menuHistory of one button to set that property in others. In other words, this is a button-to-button issue, and the fact that any of them are grouped is not pertinent. That said, a

Re: Setting menuHistory of a group of option buttons

Paul, Thanks for your suggestion! I have two groups of four option buttons. I wanted the first group of four option buttons when selected to reset the menuHistory of the other four option buttons. I grouped both sets into two group hoping that a group script for the first set would

Re: Setting menuHistory of a group of option buttons

AFAIK there is no menuHistory associated with a group of option buttons, but that doesn’t (shouldn’t) stop you from creating a history yourself using any of the hilitedButton, hilitedButtonID or hilitedButtonName properties. Paul > On Jun 21, 2016, at 1:40 PM, Charles Szasz

Re: quirk in group resize behavior

ControlGravity was the first property name that came into my mind, but it's not really accurate. In my view, this implies that controls physically move to the designated edge of the group (as an icon does in a button with iconGravity -- why this property wasn't named iconAlignment is beyond me).

Hmm... I suspect we don't have resources to do this right now but I'd be interested to discuss how it might work. So I presume what we mean by this is we have 5 options: - topLeft - controls only move with the topLeft - topRight - controls only move with the topRight - bottomLeft - controls
