Inserting a MessageRadioButton

To insert a messageRadioButton:

In the Design Structure Window of the desired file, locate the node in which you wish to insert a messageRadioButton component.
In the Component Palette, select Form Components from the dropdown list, and then drag and drop the messageRadioButton component to the parent node of your choice.
The messageRadioButton node is inserted and highlighted under the expanded parent node.
In the Property Inspector, set the following attributes for the messageRadioButton component:
- text - Enter the text value of the radio button. This value is displayed as the radio label, after the radio button.
- name - (Required) Enter a name for the component.
- prompt - Enter the prompt text that displays before the radio button.
- value - Enter the string value to send when this radio button is selected. Note that this radio button will be rendered as selected if the selectedValue attribute is equal to the value attribute.
- selected - Select true to indicate that the radio button is currently selected. Default is false.
- primaryClientAction - Enter the clientAction to fire when the radio button is clicked. In the right column, click the icon to enter a ClientAction. See Editing the PrimaryClientAction Attribute for details. Alternatively, use the Advanced tab to enter an EL syntax data binding expression or use the Bind to Data dialog to select a data source for this complex attribute.
- selectedValue - Enter the value of the selected radio button.
Note: To use data binding, see Data Binding a Component Attribute.

Tip: For a radio button to be rendered as selected, ADF UIX uses these attributes in this order of precedence: selected attribute on radio button component, selectedValue attribute on radio button container.
