Radioboxes and Variable Selectors - Has it always been like this?

So I’ve been building a workflow that uses Radioboxes. I have a use case to pass a variable to one of the Radiobox form values but when using the variable selector, the actual selector’s string get passed back (see below).

It seems really weird that we can add HTML tags to Radiobox form values but can’t seem to reference other variables AND I could of sworn this used to work.

Is anyone else able to reference variables in their Radiobox Properties if so, what version are you on?

Edit:

For those interested, I was completely and utterly confused between a workflow I had that used a dyanmicRadiobox and this one. Of course, as the name suggests a dyanmicRadiobox allows values that aren’t hardcode (like a variable)

Absolutely no reason other than I forgot it existed.

I’ve left this post open as it’s a good lesson learnt in case other citizens stumble across this post in the future

Well, groovy eval and html evaluation are separate activities, so I don’t think you need to look further than that.
As you mentioned, using a dynamicRadiobox would solve this issue quite nicely.
Is there any issue for you to use a dynamicRadiobox instead of a radiobox?
