Just did this:

on mouseUp
   group btn "A" and btn "B"
   set the name of the last group to "GROOOP"
end mouseUp

and it worked.

Why would 'last' not be reliable?

I vaguely recall some new language element recently added to allow us to more reliably refer to newly-created groups.

Apparently the "group" command is an exception to the general rule that "it" will contain the long ID of a newly-created object after a command that creates it.

And using "last" is not always reliable with groups.

After reviewing Release Notes from 8.1 back to 6.7 I can't find mention of such an option.

Am I dreaming?

I was prompted to explore this from this forum thread:
