Grouped RadioButtons

Hi, I add a custom page to my nsis installer, with readiogroups, but i can't separate them in to groups.

this is my code:

# Create controls and set defaults
    !define NSD_ADD_STYLE ${WS_GROUP}
    ${NSD_CreateGroupBox}    0u 0u 100% 64u " Perform Backup: "
    Pop $0
  
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 12u 50% 10u "Every week"
    Pop $BackupTime1
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 24u 50% 10u "Every month"
    Pop $BackupTime2
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 36u 50% 10u "Every two month"
    Pop $BackupTime3
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 48u 50% 10u "Never"
    Pop $BackupTime4
   ; !define NSD_ADD_STYLE ${WS_GROUP2}
    ${NSD_CreateGroupBox}    0u 70u 100% 54u " Perform Backup to: "
    Pop $0
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 82u 50% 10u "Save to disk"
    Pop $BackupWhere1
    ${NSD_CreateRadioButton} 10% 108u 50% 10u "Burn to DVD"
    Pop $BackupWhere2
how you can see, I have 4 $BackupTime radioButtons and 2 BackupWhere.

Can helpme ?

thx

Hi,

I came across the same problem.
The thing is that the first radiobutton in a group has to have the "WS_GROUP" style.
At first I used the following solution; creating a new Macro:
!define NSD_CreateRadioButtonFirst "nsDialogs::CreateControl /NOUNLOAD ${__NSD_RadioButton_CLASS} ${__NSD_RadioButton_STYLE}|${WS_GROUP} ${__NSD_RadioButton_EXSTYLE}"
Now to make a group of radiobuttons:
${NSD_CreateRadioButtonFirst} <Coördinates> "First"

Pop $FirstControl

${NSD_CreateRadioButton} <Coördinates> "Second"

Pop $SecondControl

${NSD_CreateRadioButton} <Coördinates> "Third"

Pop $ThirdControl
Since NSIS version 2.36 it is possible to use the Add_Style macro.
To make the same group of radiobuttons
${NSD_CreateRadioButton} <Coördinates> "First"

Pop $FirstControl

${NSD_AddStyle} $FirstControl ${WS_GROUP}

${NSD_CreateRadioButton} <Coördinates> "Second"

Pop $SecondControl

${NSD_CreateRadioButton} <Coördinates> "Third"

Pop $ThirdControl
