<dt> <h3>Description</h3></dt><dd>
<p>
    A radio select is a container megawidget which manages a number of
    buttons.  The buttons may be laid out either horizontally or
    vertically.  In single selection mode, only one button may be
    selected at any one time.  In multiple selection mode, several
    buttons may be selected at the same time and clicking on a
    selected button will deselect it. </p>

<p>    The buttons displayed can be either standard buttons, radio
    buttons or check buttons.  When selected, standard buttons are
    displayed sunken and radio and check buttons are displayed with
    the appropriate indicator color and relief.</p>

<p></p>

    or when <code>invoke()</code> is called.</p>
<p>    In single selection mode, the function is called with a single
    argument, which is the name of the selected button.</p>

<p>    In multiple selection mode, the function is called with the first
    argument being the name of the button and the second argument
    being true if the button is now selected or false if it is now
    deselected. The default is <strong>None</strong>.</p>


</dd></dl>
<a name=option.labelmargin></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>labelmargin
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. If the <strong>labelpos</strong> option is not <strong>None</strong>, this specifies the
        distance between the <strong>label</strong> component and the rest of the
        megawidget. The default is <strong>0</strong>.</p>


</dd></dl>
<a name=option.labelpos></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>labelpos
</strong></dt><dd>

        <strong>None</strong>, it should be a concatenation of one or two of the
        letters <strong>'n'</strong>, <strong>'s'</strong>, <strong>'e'</strong> and <strong>'w'</strong>.  The first letter
        specifies on which side of the megawidget to place the label. 
        If a second letter is specified, it indicates where on that
        side to place the label.  For example, if <strong>labelpos</strong> is <strong>'w'</strong>,
        the label is placed in the center of the left hand side; if
        it is <strong>'wn'</strong>, the label is placed at the top of the left
        hand side; if it is <strong>'ws'</strong>, the label is placed at the
        bottom of the left hand side.</p>
<p>        If <strong>None</strong>, a label component is not created. The default is <strong>None</strong>.</p>


</dd></dl>
<a name=option.orient></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>orient
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the direction in which the buttons are laid out.  This
    may be <strong>'horizontal'</strong> or <strong>'vertical'</strong>. The default is <strong>'horizontal'</strong>.</p>

<a name=option.selectmode></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>selectmode
</strong></dt><dd>
Initialisation option. Specifies the selection mode:  whether a single button or multiple
    buttons can be selected at one time.  If <strong>'single'</strong>, clicking on
    an unselected button selects it and deselects all other buttons. 
    If <strong>'multiple'</strong>, clicking on an unselected button selects it and
    clicking on a selected button deselects it.  This option is
    ignored if <strong>buttontype</strong> is <strong>'radiobutton'</strong> or <strong>'checkbutton'</strong>. The default is <strong>'single'</strong>.</p>


</dd></dl>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Components</h3></dt><dd>
Components created by this megawidget and its base
classes are described below.<p></p>
<a name=component.frame></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>frame
</strong></dt><dd>
If the <strong>label</strong> component has been created (that is, the <strong>labelpos</strong>
    option is not <strong>None</strong>), the <strong>frame</strong> component is created to act as
    the container of the buttons created by the <code>add()</code> method.  If
    there is no <strong>label</strong> component, then no <strong>frame</strong> component is
    created and the <strong>hull</strong> component acts as the container. By default, this component is a Tkinter.Frame.</p>


</dd></dl>
<a name=component.hull></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>hull
</strong></dt><dd>
This acts as the body for the entire megawidget.  Other components
    are created as children of the hull to further specialise this
    class. By default, this component is a Tkinter.Frame.</p>


</dd></dl>
<a name=component.label></a>
<dl><dt> <strong>label
</strong></dt><dd>
If the <strong>labelpos</strong> option is not <strong>None</strong>, this component is
        created as a text label for the megawidget.  See the
        <strong>labelpos</strong> option for details.  Note that to set, for example,
        the <strong>text</strong> option of the label, you need to use the <strong>label_text</strong>
        component option. By default, this component is a Tkinter.Label.</p>


</dd></dl>
</dd>
<dt> <h3>Dynamic components</h3></dt><dd>
<p>
        Button components are created dynamically by the <code>add()</code>
        method.  The default type of the buttons depends on the value
        of the <strong>buttontype</strong> option.</p>

<p>        Button components are created with a component group of <strong>Button</strong>.</p>
<p>        </p>
