class: RadioButton

[130:7] extends: Node, Control, Labeled, ToggleButton

The RadioButton class wraps the JavaFX RadioButton control, a circular selection indicator typically used inside a ToggleGroup where only one RadioButton in the group can be selected at a time. It extends ToggleButton, inheriting the selected pseudo-class and armed behavior, while providing the classic radio-button visual appearance. RadioButton adds no CSS properties beyond those inherited from ToggleButton and Labeled. Style class: radio-button

CSS Pseudo-classes -- ToggleButton

Pseudo-class Description
selected Applies when this RadioButton is in the selected state.

CSS Pseudo-classes -- ButtonBase

Pseudo-class Description
armed Applies when the armed property is true, meaning the button is pressed and the cursor is still over it.
