This might be a simple question. I have 4 buttons in a group. Each buttons
name and label are similar for that button. If i edit the group then select
a button and check its "Size and position" in the property inspector , at
the end of the inspector there is a field called number, is there a way to
use that number in a script ? 

I have made sure that for all the buttons in my group (top to bottom) the
number of the buttons are  (1, 2 , 3, 4) (In the picture i attached , if i
inspect button "simple" it is one , button colorful it is "2" see attached
picture). 

 I want to be able to assign a letter (A,B, C and D) for every button when
selected. If a user selects "colorful" then i want to put "b". I could use a
switch statement IF i could get that assigned number . 

I use this code , its not working ( any other way of doing this ?) 

on mouseDown
   get the  hilitedButtonName of me 
   put it into bname
   put bname
   
   get the number of button bname
   put it into X

switch X

case "1" 
put "A"
break 

case "2" 
put "B"

case "3"
put "C"

end switch 

end mouseDown
