You type "the name of this group" into the message box? The child control is in a nested group? On 9/14/20 1:18 PM, Ralph DiMola via use-livecode wrote:
I can see why the mother ship does not like synonyms. In this case I think it would be advantageous for new users if "this" was extended so that "this group" was the same as "the owner of the target". I found myself digging around until I found "the owner of the target" in the beginning. Not all synonyms are the devil incarnate. In this case there would be no backwards compatibility issues? 2 cents...
