For radio buttons, the available parameters are :

Extended parameters

Global
- Title of the chart : This common setting is described here → Chart title
- Background color : This setting allows you to choose the type of colorization for the background of the graph. Several styles and colors are available.

Display
- Buttons layout : This setting allows you to define orientation of buttons and labels. You can choose to add a vertical scrollbar when needed (if your frame is too small to contain your vertical radio buttons). You can also choose to use a tight layout (by default, each item width correspond to global component width devided by number of items).
- Radio buttons font : This setting allows you to define a writing style for radio buttons.

Selection
- Selected items: Define here the style of the selected value (by default no particular style applied).
- Hovered items: Define here the style of the hovere value (by default white text on a blue rounded rectangle).

Values
- Set a default value : This setting allows you to add the value 'all values' at the top of the list or not and to choose a label for 'all values'. You can also choose a specific default value or the first/last value from the list. It also allows you to add a specific button to select all the values with the label 'all values' or another personalized label.
- Custom list : These settings allows you to define and use a specific custom list of values.

Controls
- Control : This setting allows you to assign a control to feed with the selected value (a simple value Input Control has to be defined in your report before using this feature). It can be an input control or a Webi variable. A reset default value can also be set for Webi variable control.
- Apply on report : Choose here to apply the selection immediately or later (in this case do not omit to use a button Apply Filter to apply all filters).
- Input controls reset option : This setting allows you to choose the input controls that must be reset or not. If “All except specified” is set and no list is feeded, all report input controls will be reset when selection is done. You can also choose the type of action to perform on the input control(s): Reset or send “All values” (this allows the input control to use a default value on reset ).
- Variables reset option : This setting allows you to reset a list of Webi variable. A reset default value can also be defined (default value is #N4V_ALL).
- Drill levels storage : This parameter makes it possible to delete from the cache of the user's browser, all the values of the last drill levels operated on the current report. All drillable components of the current report will therefore be reset to their main level.
