Is there a way to disable a layout object such as a thermometer or dial?
 I want to have a layout in which the user selects a radio button (ex:
Yes) and the thermometer in the layout is disabled.   If the No button
is selected, then I want the termometer the be activated again.  Does
anyone have any ideas on how to do this?  I tried the DISABLE BUTTON
command but this obviously does not work since the object is not a
button.
 
Also, how do you set the radio button default? In the BEFORE phase of the
layout?  I want the yes button to be selected automatically (thus
deactivating the thermometer until the user selects NO).
 
ANY ideas are welcome.   
 
Thanks in advance.
