I corrected the code above.

Here is the complete breakdown from the button all the way to the root container:

```auto
#event.source = PMIRadioButton
#event.source.parent = Template
#event.source.parent.parent = TemplateRepeater$VerticalView
#event.source.parent.parent.parent = JViewport
#event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent = JideScrollPane
#event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent = TemplateRepeater ###This is the one that has your custom property
#event.source.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent.parent = Root Container

```

> **Parent Listing Script:**
>
> ```auto
> parents = [event.source]
> current_parent = event.source.parent
> while current_parent is not None:
> parents.append(current_parent)
> current_parent = current_parent.parent
> for i, parent in enumerate(parents):
> print('#event.source{} = {}'.format('.parent' * i, type(parent)))
> 
> ```
