get the layer of a control within its group

I suspect you diodn't read the Transcript
Dictionary entry for layer.
subtract the group layer value from the pertinent
control layer value.

From: "Wilhelm Sanke" <sanke at hrz.uni-kassel.de>
Subtract the layer of the owner group
from the layer of the control 
"put (the layer of fld "red" - the layer of the \
owner of fld "red") into RelativeLayer"

From: "Devin Asay" <devin_asay at byu.edu>
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.

Erik
