First of all you need to use action="blah blah blah" instead of format=
Format= is for "static" text
Second, you need to compare the variable by using var_equal action.

So, your script becomes like this:

action="var_equal '@$cue' 0 ? get_text '%cue1' : var_equal '@$cue' 1 ? get_text '%namecue1' : var_equal '@$cue' 2 ? get_text '%Bfromcue1' : get_text ''"

Not sure what you are after, but version 8.2 also provides the action cue_display X (where X is the hotcue number)
and it will display a value depending on the cue_display action (used as button)
Take a look at the code of the Pad menu of the Hotcue page (inside the Pad Editor)

cue_display 'number'
cue_display 'name'
cue_display 'position'
cue_display 'distance'
cue_display 'beat'

so you dont have to use any variables ;)
Just use <text action="cue_display X" .. />
and probably a menu with the above actions.
