wxPython – Disable Radio button

In this article we are going to learn about how can we disable a radio button present in a frame. Sometimes when we dont want user to press a button we can disable a button and the button become unclickable.
In order to disable a button we can use Disable() function associated with wx.RadioButton class of wxPython.

Syntax: wx.RadioButton.Disable(self)

Parameters: No parameters are required by Disable() function

Return Type: bool

Returns: Returns True if the window has been disabled, False if it had been already disabled before the call to this function.

Code Example:




import wx
  
APP_EXIT = 1
  
  
class Example(wx.Frame):
  
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        super(Example, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
  
        self.InitUI()
  
    def InitUI(self):
  
        # create parent panel for radio buttons
        self.pnl = wx.Panel(self)
          
        # create radio button at position (30, 10)
        self.rb1 = wx.RadioButton(self.pnl, label ='Btn1'
                             pos =(30, 10), size =(100, 20))
  
  
        # disable the radio button
        self.rb1.Disable()
  
  
def main():
    app = wx.App()
    ex = Example(None)
    ex.Show()
    app.MainLoop()
  
  
if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()
