How to make a RadioButton look like regular Button in JavaFX

Question

I\'m implementing a toolbox-like pane, so user can only pick one tool at a time, and I switched from Button to RadioButton for its behavior.

Finally I went with another way around. You can extend ToggleButton so that it behaves like a RadioButton. This does not have the weird click effect of consuming mouse release.

public class RadioToggleButton extends ToggleButton {

    // As in RadioButton.
    /**
     * Toggles the state of the radio button if and only if the RadioButton
     * has not already selected or is not part of a {@link ToggleGroup}.
     */
    @Override
    public void fire() {
        // we don't toggle from selected to not selected if part of a group
        if (getToggleGroup() == null || !isSelected()) {
            super.fire();
        }
    }
}

Then in FXML:

And it is done.
