I'm sure I'm missing something simple, but I can't seem to figure out how to check if a clicked-on button is a member of a group. I've gotten this far:
which correctly returns:
but if I change to
Code: Select all

If your code is in the group then I think what you want is something like this:
Code: Select all
put the short name of the owner of the target
If the code is in one of the members of the group then:
Code: Select all
put the short name of the owner of me
