I created a test stack. I created six buttons and grouped them. I ran the
following in a seventh button. It never failed.
I'm using 6.5.2. Somewhere along the way the more specific childControlIDs
was added. I didn't know if it is available in 6.1.1 so I didn't use it.
on mouseUp
repeat 1000
lock screen
repeat for each line tID in the controlids of grp 1
set the label of control id tID to char random(5) of "1234?"
end repeat
-- this is the important code for your purpose
repeat for each line tID in the controlids of grp 1
set the opaque of control id tID to (the label of control id tID
is "?")
end repeat
unlock screen
wait 0 ticks
repeat for each line tID in the controlids of grp 1
if the opaque of control id tID is not (the label of control id
tID is "?") then
answer "Problem!"
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
end repeat
end mouseUp
