choices. It is displayed as a vertical column or horizontal row of
labelled buttons.

\docparam{parent}{Parent window. Must not be NULL.}
\docparam{id}{Window identifier. A value of -1 indicates a default value.}
\docparam{label}{Label for the static box surrounding the radio buttons.}
\docparam{pos}{Window position. If the position (-1, -1) is specified then a default position is chosen.}
\docparam{size}{Window size. If the default size (-1, -1) is specified then a default size is chosen.}
\docparam{n}{Number of choices with which to initialize the radiobox.}
\docparam{choices}{An array of choices with which to initialize the radiobox.}
\docparam{majorDimension}{Specifies the maximum number of rows (if style contains wxRA\_SPECIFY\_ROWS) or columns (if style contains wxRA\_SPECIFY\_COLS) for a two-dimensional
radiobox.}

\helpref{wxRadioBox::Create}{wxradioboxcreate}, \helpref{wxValidator}{wxvalidator}
\pythonnote{The wxRadioBox constructor in wxPython reduces the {\tt n}

and {\tt choices}.}

\end{twocollist}}
}
\membersection{wxRadioBox::SetSelection}\label{wxradioboxsetselection}

\membersection{wxRadioBox::SetStringSelection}\label{wxradioboxsetstringselection}
\func{void}{SetStringSelection}{\param{const wxString\& }{string}}
Sets the selection to a button by passing the desired string. This does not cause
a wxEVT\_COMMAND\_RADIOBOX\_SELECTED event to get emitted.
\wxheading{Parameters}
\docparam{string}{The label of the button to select.}
\membersection{wxRadioBox::Show}\label{wxradioboxshow}
\func{virtual bool}{Show}{\param{const bool}{ show = {\tt true}}}
