In Windows Forms, RadioButton control is used to select a single option among the group of the options. For example, select your gender from the given list, so you will choose only one option among three options like Male or Female or Transgender. In Windows Forms, you are allowed to adjust the foreground color of the RadioButton using the ForeColor Property of the RadioButton which makes your RadioButton more attractive. This property is an ambient property. You can set this property in two different ways:
1. Design-Time: It is the easiest way to set the foreground color of the RadioButton as shown in the following steps:
2. Run-Time: It is a little bit trickier than the above method. In this method, you can set the foreground color of the RadioButton control programmatically with the help of given syntax:
public override System.Drawing.Color ForeColor { get; set; }
Here, Color indicates the foreground color of the RadioButton. The following steps show how to set the foreground color of the RadioButton dynamically:
- Step 1: Create a radio button using the RadioButton() constructor is provided by the RadioButton class.
// Creating radio button
RadioButton r1 = new RadioButton();
- Step 2: After creating RadioButton, set the ForeColor property of the RadioButton provided by the RadioButton class.
// Setting the foreground color of the radio button
r1.ForeColor = Color.Brown;
- Step 3: And last add this RadioButton control to the form using Add() method.
// Add this radio button to the form
this.Controls.Add(r1);
Example:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace WindowsFormsApp20 {
public partial class Form1 : Form {
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void RadioButton2_CheckedChanged( object sender,
EventArgs e)
{
}
private void Form1_Load( object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Label l = new Label();
l.AutoSize = true ;
l.Location = new Point(176, 40);
l.Text = "Select Your Branch" ;
this .Controls.Add(l);
RadioButton r1 = new RadioButton();
r1.AutoSize = true ;
r1.Text = "CSE" ;
r1.Location = new Point(286, 40);
r1.ForeColor = Color.Brown;
this .Controls.Add(r1);
RadioButton r2 = new RadioButton();
r2.AutoSize = true ;
r2.Text = "ECE" ;
r2.Location = new Point(356, 40);
r2.ForeColor = Color.Brown;
this .Controls.Add(r2);
}
}
}
