Hide command for a matrix (radio buttons)

Scripting Forums AppleScript Studio & Xcode
#1

I was just wondering what the comand is to hide a matrix. I realize that the hide comand is only available in later versions of X but that isn’t a problem. I know that the “hide” and “show” comands are only available for the window object. Basically what I want to do is have a N/A check box that if checked will hide the lower radio buttons, and if unchecked will have them appear again. I know how to script everything but the hide/show (if it is even possible). Any help here would be much appriciated!

on clicked theObject
	tell window "main"
		if state of button "na" is 1 then
			hide the matrix "remix" of the box "remixBox"
		else
			show the matrix "remix" of box "remixBox"
		end if
	end tell
end clicked

you might be able to do something like


set visible of matrix "remix" of box "remixBox" of window "main" to true or false

Another idea would be to disable the boxes that are/are not available. In a case like this I usually have one or more sets of matrix button sets and will indent suborinate sets and enable/disable them based on superior button settings.
