Radio Button Bug .enabled?
I have been writing a fairly complex testing application for my job, and have been agonizing over this problem for over a month.
I have created a dynamic testing application that reads from XML, and my radiobutton class works splendidly, except for that when a user is prompted to review the exam, and the enabled parameter is set to false (no longer allowing a user to change the submitted submitted radiobutton answers), I loose the formatted text size for that radio button label. I am dealing with ADA issues, so allowing them to see the proper text size when reviewing their exam is of utmost importance. I am with them being grayed out, i just need to be able to maintain that the buttons are disabled, but the text size remains the same. I have tried re-applying my format to the radio buttons after setting rb.enabled = false; but it doesn't do anything....
Any help would be greatly appreciated.....
