OptionBtn control
Use the option button control (OptionBtn) when only one item of a group may be selected. This
control is also useful for a parameter with a limited number of values (from 2 to 4).
List boxes take up less space in the Key Parameters pane because only one state displays unless
being selected; the option button control must show all choices.
See an example of this control in the lower right of the figures in Example of using the editor (on page
6-138) for the AcqType parameter (the Acquisition Type group is an option button control).
Using an option button permits different values to be returned for each choice in the same way as a
list box; a check box control only returns a zero (0) or a one (1).
In the example shown here, these values correspond to the two measurement modes for the spot
mean measurement LPT command pulse_meas_wfm (on page 13-111). The two measurement
modes are Discrete and Average. This option determines whether measurements from multiple
pulses (set by the pulseAvgCnt parameter) are averaged together into a single value (average) or
as each pulse with its own measurement (discrete). Refer to Waveform measurements (on page 5-
72) for additional information on this measurement mode.
