How to effectively use the Cancel button on an ETO form

I’m taking a look at creating my own custom forms with ETO and I have a question about cancelling the script using a “Cancel” button.

If my form only has radio buttons, how can I make a Cancel button actually cancel the script?

It’s simple when there is a text field, and it’s probably simple for this example too, but it’s got be puzzled.

Thanks in advance,

Thought I had it. Not quite.

As your form has to be shown inside of a function inside of python you can subscribe to the Click event handler of your Cancel button and return.

I can provide a sample if you are unsure how to do that

Hi Lando,

I would appreciate a sample if you don’t mind.

Thanks,

Hi @DanBayn,

See the attached sample with only two buttons, OK and Cancel

The first one just prints “OK” to the command line, while the other one closes the Eto form
