I am trying to create an xmxl component which contains an image and a radio button.
The main application script will use several of these components.
I am having problems trying to get the RadioGroup to function properly.
I have binded a variable on the RadioButton groupName attribute in the component mxml file so I can set this in the main application script.
This functions properly as when I tab through each RadioGroup, only the first radiobutton of each group gets the focus.
But when I click each radio button in a group, the previous one does not deselect.
I have read that I cannot bind component id's so how else can I achieve selecting only one radio button in each group?
Do I need to implement IFocusManager?
Thank You
Each group of RadioButtons needs a RadioButtonGroup assigned to the groupName. The RadioButtonGroup makes sure only 1 button is selected at a time.
The RadioButtonGroup is declared in <fx:Declarations>
and is the name of the RadioButtonGroup is assigned in the groupName property.
<fx:Declarations>
<s:RadioButtonGroup id="paymentType" itemClick="handlePayment(event);"/>
</fx:Declarations>
<s:VGroup paddingLeft="10" paddingTop="10">
<s:RadioButton groupName="paymentType"
id="payCheck"
value="check"
label="Pay by check"
width="150"/>
<s:RadioButton groupName="paymentType"
id="payCredit"
value="credit"
label="Pay by credit card"
width="150"/>
</s:VGroup>
