Remove the parantheses.

LC tries to handle them as containers.
For example (btn "B2" of group "BUTTS") is a container,
e.g. the content of a menu button or any other string you
put into btn "B2" of group "BUTTS". This works:

put the backGroundColor of btn "B2" of group "BUTTS"

Why, when I do this:

putthebackgroundcolorof(grc "h1" ofgroup"JK5")

do I get:

Error description: Chunk: source is not a container

Hint:

[useful hint, by the way]

?

Interestingly enough when I do this:

putthebackGroundColorof(btn "B2" ofgroup"BUTTS")

I get this:

Error description: Chunk: error in object expression

NOW, I thought that was how one refered to members of a group.
