That might be possible except I've checked for that already, and also it
doesn't fit the symptoms I've already expressed. The phrase evaluates correctly
if the target card is the currentcard, or if I reference the object using the

This works for me when I’m on the card with the button:
put "btn: Set10to15" && the hilited of button "Set10to15"
This works for me on any card in the stack:
put "btn: Set10to15" && the hilited of button "Set10to15" of cd "GameCardHD"
The button I’m referencing is in a group on the cd

if you don't specify the stack it uses the "defaultstack" ... so is it
returning false even if the button is not there?

Hi all.
I have noticed that if I reference an object on a different card while that
card is not the current card, I have to use the full path to that object. For
instance:
put the hilited of button "btndbprimary" of card "Database Setup"
this will return true if card "Database Setup" is the
