RadioButtonGroup Events
RadioButtonGroup has the following events associated with it:
doLayout Event
This event is invoked for every widget when the widget position and dimensions are computed.
Syntax
Read/Write
Read + Write
Remarks
This event is invoked for all the widgets placed inside flex containers. This event is invoked in the order in which the widgets are added to the widget hierarchy and expect the frame property of the widget is calculated and available for use within this event.
This event is used to set the layout properties of child widgets in the relation to self and peer widgets whose layout is not yet performed.
The number of times this event invoked may vary per platform. It is not recommended to write business logic assuming that this function is invoked only once when there is a change in positional or dimensional properties. This event will not trigger when transformations are applied though widget is moved or scaled or rotated from its original location.
Example
Platform Availability
- iOS
- Android
- Windows
- SPA
onScrollWidgetPosition Event
This event callback is invoked by the platform when the widget location position gets changed on scrolling. The onScrollWidgetPosition event returns the positional coordinates of the widget’s location with respect to the screen (screenX and screenY) and the parent container (frameX and frameY). This event is invoked asynchronously, and is not available for FlexForm widget.
Syntax
Read/Write
Read + Write
Example
Platform Availability
- Not Accessible from IDE
- Android, iOS, SPA, and Windows
onSelection Event
An event callback that is invoked by the platform when an item is selected or deselected.
Syntax
Read/Write
Read + Write
Remarks
For Server side Mobile Web (Basic devices), this event is fired only when you make a selection and then write an onClick event for a button.
Example
Platform Availability
Available on all platforms.
onTouchEnd Event
An event callback is invoked by the platform when the user touch is released from the touch surface.
Syntax
Optional Parameters
source
Handle to the widget reference on which the user touch has ended.
x
Specifies the x-coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
y
Specifies the y- coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
contextInfo
On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.
Note: 3D Touch is available only on iOS 9.0 and later.
Read/Write
Read + Write
Remarks
This event is invoked asynchronously.
Example
Platform Availability
- iOS, Android, Windows, and SPA
onTouchMove Event
An event callback is invoked by the platform when the touch moves on the touch surface continuously until movement ends.
Syntax
Optional Parameters
source
Handle to the widget reference on which touch moves.
x
Specifies the x-coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
y
Specifies the y- coordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
contextInfo
On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.
Note: 3D Touch is available only on iOS 9.0 and later.

onTouchStart Event
An event callback is invoked by the platform when the user touches the touch surface.
Syntax
Optional Parameters
source
Handle to the widget reference on which the user touches.
x
Specifies the X co-ordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
y
Specifies the Y co-ordinate with in the widget with respect to widget’s co-ordinate system. It is a number indicating device independent pixel.
contextInfo
On devices that support 3D Touch, specifies a key-value pair where the value specifies the force of the touch. The value 1.0 represents the force of an average touch, as determined by the system.

postOnclickJS Event
This event allows the developer to execute custom javascript function after the onSelection callback of the RadioButton is invoked.
Syntax
Read/Write
Read + Write
Remarks
This is applicable only for Mobile Web channel. The function must exist in a javascript file under project>module>js folder.
Example
Platform Availability
- Available in the IDE
- Available on Server side Mobile Web (Advanced) platform only
preOnclickJS Event
This event allows the developer to execute custom javascript function before the onSelection callback of the RadioButton is invoked.
Syntax
Read/Write
Read + Write
Remarks
This is applicable only for Mobile Web channel. The function must exist in a javascript file under project>module>js folder.
This event should return true, to continue with execution of onSelection and postOnclickJS events.
In for the events preOnclickJS and postOnclickJS you will not be able to access application model or APIs, as these functions are executed in browser whereas the remaining JS modules are executed in server. For these events you can access browser objects ( window, document etc..) to change UI or perform some validation before server event. If the event preOnclickJS returns true, only then the request is sent to server for subsequent action. You have to specify the modules to be loaded in browser using import JS tab, only then these files get included in.html script tag otherwise you will not be able to access the objects defined in those modules.
Example
Platform Availability
- Available in the IDE
- Available on Server side Mobile Web (BJS and Advanced) platform only
