hi

yad --use-interp --form --field='' '' \

--field :LBL '' --field='' '' --field :LBL '' \

--field=7:BTN '@echo 1:7 ; echo 3:7'

but the more robust way is use the function
for button

function hndl {
for f in 1 3; do
echo $f:$1
done
}
export -f hndl

yad --use-interp --form --field='' '' \

--field :LBL '' --field='' '' --field :LBL '' \

--field=7:BTN '@hndl 7'

I'm sorry, but I tried exactly as you sent me and it didn't work. I'll explain: 

yad --use-interp --form --field = '' '' \ 

--field: LBL '' --field = '' '' --field: LBL '' \ 

--field = 7: BTN '@echo 1: 7; echo 3: 7 ' => is displaying "echo 3: 7" in the same field instead of being displayed in field 3 and the other more robust suggestion: 

function hndl { 

for f in 1 3; do

 echo $ f: $ 1 

done 

} 

export -f hndl 

 yad --use-interp --form --field = '' '' \ 

--field: LBL '' --field = '' '' --field: LBL '' \ 

--field = 7: BTN '@hndl 7'  => I didn't exhibit anything. for the record I used copy and paste and even these examples sent don't work,

what kind of shell you use? those examples runs fine under bash, but may not
works under other shells like dash. check where points /bin/sh symlink
and make sure you are using bash

Don't know if I miss sth. but when I copy the code here from this web forum and paste it into a shell (bash@Linux), the here visible double quotes here translate into 2x2 single quotes there.

I had to manually replace the 2x2 single quotes with 2 double quotes for the shell command line. The script ran successfully but I have no clue what usage and result was expected.
