You can change the code behind that popup to loop over the members of the group and add up the output of each group member:

Object current = ownerobject(c);
treenode textnode = param(1);

/***popup:DisplayObjectStat*/
/**Display Object Stat*/
string starttext = /***tag:text*//**/"Object Stat: "/**/;
Object involved = model().find(/** \nObject: *//***tag:object*//**/"Operator1"/**/);

int stat = /***tag:stat*//**/1/**/;
string statstr = "";

if (involved.is(Group)) {
	Group group = involved;
	Array members = group.toFlatArray();
	int output = 0;
	for (int i = 1; i <= members.length; i++) {
		output += getoutput(members[i]);
	}
	statstr = string.fromNum(output,0);
} else 
	statstr = string.fromNum(getoutput(involved),0);

setnodestr(textnode, concat(starttext, statstr));

Note that the above code will only work for the Output option.

The dashboard method works fine and is really sufficient for my needs. I haven't gotten to the Statistics Collector yet. I appreciate having the code for collecting the output for all of the members of the group.

Thanks for the help

That pick option gets the output of an individual object. It doesn't return the sum of the outputs of the members of a group.

The Group object itself does not keep aggregated stats about the members of the group. It only keeps a list of members.

If you want Group statistics, you can use a Statistics Collector, Calculated Table, or Dashboard chart to get that data. For example, you can drag a Composite Throughput chart into a Dashboard to collect the sum of the outputs of the members of a group.
