Graham, The problem comes from using the "radioBehavior" of a group of radio buttons. Turn that off by selecting the group and unchecking "Hilite one radio button at a time" in the properties palette.
Then, script it yourself by setting the "hilitedButton" or "hilitedButtonName" of the group, as in: set the hilitedButton of group "indicators" to 2 OR set the hilitedButtonName of group "indicators" to "My Button" Nothing happens when the user clicks, but you can set it in a script.
