G'Day !
Ok you are right ... radio buttons work like I want. Thanks
I have a bug I can't figure out. All my buttons look like they are toggled
(it actually works properly)
BTW I'm using GTK+ 1.2.10 on a Debian GNU/Linux system.
below is my code to create my toolbar. I use an array of struct to hold
the data needed to create the toolbar buttons (works well).
/* Function: CreateRadioButton ( )
*
* Test function to create groups of radio buttons for toolbars
*/
void
add_toolbar_radio (GtkWidget *box, typToolButton button[5])
{
GtkWidget *radio;
GSList *group = NULL;
guint j;
handlebox = gtk_handle_box_new ();
gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (box),handlebox, FALSE, FALSE, 0);
gtk_widget_show (handlebox);
toolbar = gtk_toolbar_new (GTK_ORIENTATION_VERTICAL,
GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS);
gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER (handlebox), toolbar);
gtk_widget_show (toolbar);
for (j = 0; j < NUM_ROWS; j++)
{
radio = gtk_radio_button_new(group);
group = gtk_radio_button_group (GTK_RADIO_BUTTON (radio));
/* icon = gtk_pixmap_new(..., ...); */
/* gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(button), icon); */
gtk_toggle_button_set_mode(GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON(radio), FALSE);
/* gtk_toggle_button_toggled (FALSE); */
gtk_toolbar_append_element (GTK_TOOLBAR (toolbar),
GTK_TOOLBAR_CHILD_RADIOBUTTON,
NULL,
NULL,
button[j].tooltip,
NULL,
CreateWidgetFromXpmFile(box,button[j].widget),
/* NULL, */
(GtkSignalFunc) button[j].function,
button[j].data);
}
}
Anybody know what is wrong ?
TIA
cheers,
Jim Parker

I am building a toolbar(s) in a CAD application. While I use
radio-buttons
in my menu, the UI would require a major rewite to incorporate the use
of
radio-buttons and I don't think it wold work (I am probably blinded by
convention here).
I may misunderstand totally, but you're still describing radio
buttons. The only difference between toggle buttons and radio buttons is
that toggle buttons automatically call gtk_toggle_button_set_active()
for every buttons of its group if it is selected.
Maybe you don't want to use radio buttons like this:
< > choice 1
<*> choice 2
< > choice 3
and you prefer a toolbox like this:
| |[ ]| |
| icon 1 |[ icon 2 ]| icon 3 |
| |[ ]| |
(sorry, if my ascii art looks ugly, I'm not an artist)
then, you can create your radiobuttons like this:
button = gtk_radio_button_new(group);
icon = gtk_pixmap_new(..., ...);
gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(button), icon);
gtk_toggle_button_set_mode(GTK_TOGGLE_BUTTON(button), FALSE);
etc.
The last function prevent the < > or <*> indicator to be drawn, instead,
the radio button will be shown pressed or depressed to show its state.
