You've already asked this question 10 months ago and many people told you that this is a bad idea and won't work.

You need to re-think the way you do zooming in your game, use different images or even layouts for different zoom levels.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to access variables by their string name. So the only option for you is to add a bunch of events like this:
If var_name="FRA_hue_red" then Set Result=FRA_hue_red Else If var_name="FRA_hue_blue" then Set Result=FRA_hue_blue Else If var_name="FRA_hue_green" then Set Result=FRA_hue_green etc..

Another solution is to use a dictionary instead of global variables. With dictionary you can easily access keys by name - Dictionary.Get("FRA_hue_red")

You can do this with image points only. On click, check distance to image point, for example:
Mouse on Enemy clicked If distance(Mouse.x, Mouse.y, Enemy.ImagePointX("LeftLimb"), Enemy.ImagePointY("LeftLimb"))<50 Destroy LeftLimb

You can try something like this:

Mouse On Click object Enemy
 System pick CoverSprite by evaluate CoverSprite.layerNumber >Enemy.layerNumber
	Mouse cursor is not over CoverSprite 
		Enemy subtract 1 from health

Form control objects have problems with scrolling/sczling/z-sorting and are really not suited for these kind of games. I recommend making your own text input box with a Text or SpriteFont object.

For "n"=0 to 20 ...System create Brick at (100+loopindex*50, 200)

Where 100 is the offset from the left edge of the layout, 50 is the width of brick sprite.

If you don't need to apply different animations/behaviors/effects to each individual brick, then it's better to use one TileMap object instead of many sprites.
