TRadioGroup: A group of related but mutually exclusive radio buttons, requiring the user to select one af a set of alternatives. As one button becomes selected, the remaining buttons in the group become automatically deselected.
To Use this control, place it in the required position on the form, then in the Object Inspector select Items and click on the ellipsis (...) to open the string editor. Type in the captions to accompany each check box, then close the string editor and you will see a series of Radio Boxes with their captions displayed beside them. (Note - unlike TCheckGroup, there is no special RadioGroup editor)
Inherits properties from TCustomRadioGroup and TCustomGroupBox
TRadioGroup behaves differently from a group of TRadioButton controls placed arbitrarily around a form.
In the case of TRadioButton, the mutual exclusivity is a feature that applies to any RadioButton anywhere in the Form, and the RadioButtons can be rearranged in any order or placed anywhere within the containing Form, while in TRadioGroup the exclusivity applies only to buttons within the Group, which are ordered strictly according to their ItemIndex within the Items stringlist.
TRadioButton is an entity in itself, with a number of additional properties, whereas the buttons within TRadioGroup are not separate entities, but rather are simply entries in a list of strings, each of which is associated with the on-screen image of a RadioButton.
The example shows the difference between the use of TRadioButton and TRadioGroup

How to use StdCtrls, ComCtrls or ExtCtrls |
|
|
A selection button that works with other Radio Buttons in a mutually exclusive way - if one button is selected, none of the others in the group can be selected. |
{Using TRadioGroup with three entries in Items: Index 0: Red Index 1: Amber Index 2: Green} procedure TTrivialForm1.RadioGroup1Click(Sender: TObject); begin case RadioGroup1.ItemIndex of 0: Shape1.brush.color := clRed; 1: Shape1.brush.color := clYellow; 2: Shape1.brush.color := clGreen end end; {Using three separate RadioButtons} procedure TForm1.RadioButton1Click(Sender: TObject); begin Shape1.brush.color := clRed end; procedure TForm1.RadioButton2Click(Sender: TObject); begin Shape1.brush.color := clYellow end; procedure TForm1.RadioButton3Click(Sender: TObject); begin Shape1.brush.color := clGreen end;
