Problem You would like to display radio buttons in a GtkSheet for user selection as shown below:
Solution
Important Note: This only works for PHP-GTK2 compliled with the additional library GtkExtra. For linux, you can download the files from http://gtkextra.sourceforge.net/ and do a recompile. For windows, you may use the builds by Elizabeth Smith or the official php-gtk2 beta release available at http://gtk.php.net/download.php. Both contain all the required gtkextra libraries and dll's. In the php.ini, don't forget to add php-gtk.extensions = php_gtk_extra2.dll to turn on GtkExtra.

Explanation The example above makes use of the code from How to use GtkSheet - Part 9 - using attach with justification?
What's new here:
- Set up the GtkRadioButtons. Note that I used the technique as described in How to set up radio buttons with default all unselected? so that no radio buttons are selected when the application is first started.
- Note that we store the pointer to each radio button in the array
$radio_buttons[$row][$i] so that we have easy access to these buttons later to check which one is selected.
- Attach the radio butotns to the cell.
- For all other columns, we use GtkLabel for standard text.
- Check which of the radio button is selected.
- Add the selected radio button to the array
$selections
- Here we simply output the selected rows to the command window. In your applications, you can perform any actions based on user's selections.
Note
Note that in this example, I set the spreadsheet in browser mode for browse and selection only. Only the radio buttons are selectable. If you wish to set the entire spreadsheet to be editable, you may refer to the example How to use GtkSheet - Part 11 - setup combobox in cell?
Also, as I've mentioned in the blog, there's some problem with this method.
Try pressing the Tab key. Did you see the underlying GtkItemEntry?
I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug. Although I could find some ways to "gobble" up the Tab or arrow keys so that the GtkItemEntry doesn't appear, I know this should not be the right way of doing things.
Anybody knows how to "deactivate" the underlying GtkItemEntry?
