Button appearance

Write a short handler that places the properties of each button into a  variable, and then checks, line by line, where each property differs from that of the other. The “order”, length  and construction of each button will be the same, only the contents differing.

Place those differences in a readable output.

Fun, and should take only five minutes.

When I inspect their properties, all have the style “standard” and appear identical in all other property settings I can find (except of course in name and location).  But some of these buttons appear as white rounded rectangles, others as gray (with a slight gradient) rectangles (unrounded).  What property is causing this difference in appearance?
