[Maya-Python] making a radiobutton menu

[j***@gmail.com]

I'm trying to build a tool that does 2 different things to an object. I am trying to make a UI where if the use selects a radiobutton it will give different options, kind of like how in convert nurbs to poly window, you get different options when toggling the tesselation method. I'm sorry if this is confusing. Thank you

Hi. Do you have a specific question? If you are stuck on your attempt to
create a radiobutton, can you show what you have tried and specifically
where you are hitting an issue?

Thanks for clarifying.

I don't have any code on hand to share, but the general idea is that you
hook either the changeCommands or onCommands of your radioButtonGrp to a
function that will rebuild another set of controls in a layout. You can
either do this by deleting the previous layout and rebuilding the desired
controls for the selected option, or you can create each layout upfront,
all at once, and set only one of them visible at a time.

Let me know if that is enough to get you going. Maybe someone has time for
an example or I can try and knock something together tomorrow.
