How to get selected radio button value from Dialog to JS?

[Former Community Member]

Hi,

I designed two radio buttons in a tab (dialog).

When i selected that radio button i able to call the method  which i wrote in external JS through listeners .

But i want to get the selected radio button value from that panel exists in dialog?

Based on this selection i need to hide multiple tabs or panel at a time in a tab panel and shows one panel which is selected in radio buttons.

Hope my question clear.

Thanks in advance

I like the dialog.findbytype function. This example returns the numberfield objects on a dialog, but you can use the radio type instead:

var fields = dialog.findByType("numberfield");

This is what i coded

manageTabs  = {};
manageTabs = function(dialog) {

     // console.log(dialog.find("title", "SwitchTabs")[0].find('myid')));
      var fields = dialog.findByType("selection");
      console.log(fields);
};

I can see the "selection" object which contains three options how to get that selected option from those three?

Thanks

selection.getValue() would seem to be the method to use:
