Hi.

If I have three buttons on a card, named "b1", "b2" and "b3", and in the
script of "b3" I have:

on mouseUp
   select btn "b1" and btn "b2"
   answer the selectedObjects
end mouseUp

I get both selected buttons without issue.. Note this is in v. 6.7.9.

But the "selectedObjects" does not seem to stick very long. Consider these
two handlers:

on mouseUp
   select btn "b1" and btn "b2"
   repeat with y = 1 to the number of lines of the selectedObjects
      put word 1 of line y of the selectedObjects into line y of gg
   end repeat
   answer gg
end mouseUp


on mouseUp
   select btn "b1" and btn "b2"
   put the selectedObjects into ff
   repeat with y = 1 to the number of lines of ff
      put word 1 of line y of the selectedObjects into line y of gg
   end repeat
   answer gg
end mouseUp

The second one keeps the result of the function. The first one does not.
