Re: Exact number of a radio button in a group
That would be GREAT if i had 1 group , but i have over 80 groups, each group has 4 possible answers (radio buttons). That would mean i would have to go into every button's script and add that script. Which could be my last resort , but i would prefer to edit 80 groups , instead of over 300 buttons . Is there away to control it from the group itself instead of editing every button ?

Re: Exact number of a radio button in a group
What about using custom properties? You would set a property (e.g. CID) for each of the four buttons in a group to A, B, C or D and then use a script in the group something like this... on mouseUp if the cID of the target = B then doStuff end if end mouseUp ...to react when the user clicked the correct answer. This way you could simply copy and paste your group to create a new set of options, change the labels of the buttons to whatever you wanted and only have a single script to deal with for each group. Alternatively, you could use a single handler in all groups to catch the group name and the button property and pass these to a stack handler that deals with all you groups... on mouseUp doStuff (the short name of the owner of the target),(the cID of the target) end mouseUp And then in the stack script... on doStuff grpName,btnID switch grpName case someGrp if btnID = B then... break case someOtherGrp if btnID = D then... break end switch end doStuff Or you could use a behaviour.
