A question about the radio button

[pantao551]

Is there any method to make the focus more obvious when it is staying at a radio button? Because a very thin black dash squre line is not easy to find, especially when there are many radio button in the dialog. Thanks!

and what are you especting for a "more obvious" focused radio button ?

[pantao551]

My program will run on a computer without mouse. So it is very important to make everything obvious, Especially the focus of the keyboard. When I use the radio button, especially when the radio button is more than 10 in a dialog, it is difficult to find the focus.

cant the user use the "Tab" key to navigate between the controls, and use mnemonics to access more quickly to a specific control like :

O My radio

to access this radio directly with the keyboard, press Alt+M (as M is underscored)

The key board is not standard. It has only number keys and moving keys like -> <- up down and enter. It does not have tab and system keys. I think I should ask my question like this: ^-^ Is there any way to make the controls of the dialog like radio button or check box highlighted when the focus of the keyboard is staying at them? Once again, my computer has no mouse. Thanks! -- modified at 5:21 Tuesday 14th March, 2006

One option would be to dynamically set the WS_EX_DLGMODALFRAME extended style on each control as it receives the focus. As it loses focus, you would then need to clear it.
