How does one get the relative position of a button within a group of buttons?
I want to
put the (relative to group myGroup) number of the target into vMyVar
One can say
select button 3 of group myGroup
without problem.
But how would one best do this using the target
A group has a rect, and so do the objects inside it. They all have locs as
well. So just do a little math and calculate the local position of any
object within the group, just as the default functions give you that
information
relative to the stack window or screen.
Best done as a function,
Hmmm.
Did you mean the layer or number of a button in a group as opposed to its
physical location?

I used a mouseDown handler so that it might not interfere with mouseUp
handlers typically already loaded in the button scripts, but you get the idea.
In the group script:
on mousedown
put the number of the target into tNum
put the number of btns of grp yourGroup into numBtns
repeat

Adorable, as usual you found a way to use the system to its best advantage,
as opposed to my brute force thinking all the time.

Hi Mark,
Here's one way you can use with any grouped object.
on mouseUp -- in a grouped button
put the locWithinGroup of me
end mouseUp
getProp locWithinGroup
-- return card-relative loc if target object is not in a group
if word 1 of the name of the owner of the target is not group
I'm losing it.
What's the right syntax for returning whether the target of a
mouseclick is a part of a given group?
--If the target is in,within,among the objects of, among the
controls of, a member of, once palled around with group x
Thanks
if the long id of group x is in the long id of control y
