get the layer of a control within its group

I believe you can revert to HyperCard convention relative to controls 
in a group by referring to background button n, where n is the button 
number and therefore should reflect its layer within the group. 
Similarly, you can exclude grouped controls by referring to card button 
n.

Chime in if I've gotten this wrong, Jeanne.
