Hi.
An array variable is just a variable, it is not a property. You cannot “make”
one into the other.
So, basically, put the pArrayName[pElementName] of button “button” is just
syntax that does not exist in the lexicon, for the above reason.

Is there a logic behind the following?
I want the values of a custom property which is an array: to take a specific
example the dropShow of button “button” and I want the specific element color
Of course I can write: put the dropShadow of button “button” into aa; put
aa[color]
