Unselecting RadioButtons in Java Swing

Question

When displaying a group of JRadioButtons, initially none of them is selected (unless you programmatically enforce that). I would like to be able to put buttons back into tha

Answer 1

I don't know if this will help but have you tried to use doClick() method?

jRadioButtonYourObject.doClick();

Input - NONE

Return- void

I had a similar problem and tried everything in this thread to no avail. So I took a look at all the methods of JRadioButton and found that method from JRadioButton's parent class.

In my program, I had two radio button independent of each other and it was programed so that only one was selected.

After the user enters data and hits a button the program clears all text fields and areas and deselects the radio button. The doClick() did the job of deselecting the radio button for me; the method "performs a "click"."

I know yours is different and you probably would have to program the doClick() method for every radio button that is selected.
