Hi,
Yes, you can add controls to any container using the form designer. A group
box is just a type of container, like the form itself. So to add radio
buttons to the group box, tab in the form designer until the group box is
selected, and then pull up the toolbox and drop the radio buttons. They
will be dropped inside the group box.
As for JAWS getting the order of the radio buttons wrong, well... that's a
JAWS thing. You just have to play with the various properties of the
controls until you get the desired result. But if sometimes JAWS gets it
wrong, then I'm afraid you're stuck with it. It's certainly not a problem
with Visual Studio.
All the best,
David

Subject: [program-l] vs 2008 - adding radio buttons to a groupbox
Hi,
I've put a groupbox and three radio buttons on a form.
Is it possible to add the radio buttons to the group box using the form
designer, or I have to go to code and write:
this.buttonTypeGroupBox.Controls.Add(this.okButton); ?
I don't find the controls property on the property page of groupbox.
Another doubt: the button1, button2 and button3 radio buttons have their
tabindex properties set to 0, 1 and 2, but Jaws screen reader announces
"button1 radio button checked three of three" instead of "button1 radio
button checked one of three". Why does it happen? If I reverse the
tabindexes I think it announces correctly in ascending order from top to
buttom, but I don't understand the logic.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Sérgio Neves
