Radio buttons preference and Message prompts

Greg and all, hie

Please assist. When capturing data, I need to have all capture types responses as radio buttons instead of the check box. Doing that one by one would take long.

Secondly, is there a way of changing the message box/ prompts to the colours I prefer and also to make sure that the prompts do not truncate the message, check attachment. The message box is too white and the massage is not shown to completion.

Regards,
Boi

Dear Boikgwadi

In my one project i am using this syntax for radio option.

Code: Select all

function settype()
	setcapturetype(ABC,1);
	setcapturetype(DEF,1);
end;



PROC ABC

Preproc

	settype();
	
PROC DEF

Preporc
	settype();

You can change the capture type by right clicking on the field in the form editor and choosing "Field properties".

If you have long question text you should put them in CAPI question text (the yellow box at the top) not in the label. The label is meant to be short.

There is no way to change the color of the popup.
