I think you should give them all different Action names and use Group for
your needs.

If you look at the Action wiki help it lists the following properties..
http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action

Properties
*Controls <http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/controls>*  *Enabled
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/enabled>*  *HasShortcut
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/hasshortcut>*  *Picture
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/picture>*  *Shortcut
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/shortcut>*  *Text
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/text>*  *Tooltip
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/tooltip>*  *Value
<http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/value>*
*Visible <http://gambaswiki.org/wiki/comp/gb.qt4/action/visible>*

So setting Action["setup"].Text changes ALL objects with action "setup" to
given text.

The same for Action["setup"].Value

So because they share the action string they are linked. as those buttons
represent the same Action. i don't think using the same action string for
things that perform different actions is the way to go m8.
