Is it possible to do this with your tool?

Thanks for creating this tool. I wanted to ask if the following is possible (I understand you are busy people. I will totally put in the work needed to implement this myself but wanted to ask if this is possible using your tool because it doesn't seem to me it is).

I want to automatically fill in a yes-no radio button based on user input earlier on in the form. I am able to determine whether the response should be yes or no using calculated fields, etc. but I just can't find a way to fill in the radio button. Is there any way to do this with your tool? It seems that I could use this tool to modify the data manually when I "click run" in my IDE but I want to do it as the user is filling in the form.

Cheers

@ActualAccount Thank you for reaching out. To help us better understand your question, do you have any example that illustrates what you are trying to achieve?

Hi, In my case, The user first answers a questionaire on paper and research personnel enter their answers on REDCap. Based on the number of yes's to the survey, a yes or no radio button is ticked indicating whether the candidate is eligible or not. I'm able to determine they are eligible and give a message accordingly (e.g. "the candidate is eligible") but the yes or no still has to be manually selected. It would be nice to avoid this.
