Add a radio button widget to the scene.

Radio buttons work in groups. Only one button in a group can be on at at the same time. Typically you should add two or more buttons belonging to a same radio button group. Each button should be passed a callback function. This function will be called when a radio button in a group is switched on, assuming it was not already on.

Parameters:

callbackcallable()

The method called when a radio button’s state changes from off to on.

radio_button_group: str

valuebool, default: False

The default state of the button. If multiple buttons in the same group are initialized with to True state, only the last initialized button will remain on.

title: str, optional

String title to be displayed next to the radio button.

positionsequence[float], default: (10.0, 10.0)

The absolute coordinates of the bottom left point of the button.

sizeint, default: 50

The diameter of the button in number of pixels.

border_sizeint, default: 8

The size of the borders of the button in pixels.

color_onColorLike, default: 'blue'

color_offColorLike, default: 'grey'

The following example creates a background color switcher.

>>> import pyvista as pv
>>> pl = pv.Plotter()
>>> def set_bg(color):
...     def wrapped_callback():
...         pl.background_color = color
...
...     return wrapped_callback
>>> _ = pl.add_radio_button_widget(
...     set_bg('white'),
...     'bgcolor',
...     position=(10.0, 200.0),
...     title='White',
...     value=True,
... )
>>> _ = pl.add_radio_button_widget(
...     set_bg('lightblue'),
...     'bgcolor',
...     position=(10.0, 140.0),
...     title='Light Blue',
... )
>>> _ = pl.add_radio_button_widget(
...     set_bg('pink'),
...     'bgcolor',
...     position=(10.0, 80.0),
...     title='Pink',
