Grouping objects

Hi All,

I use Version 4 and am trying to group objects together but can't figure out how to. In the image below, I used colours to indentify components but they don't group together to edit this way:



Whilst trying to seach for a solution, I came across this but I don't have the "Objects" display in my moi UI.




Is grouping object together an option?

Many thanks in advance!

Hey Pilou,

I have version 4, my understanding is that is the latest, or am I wrong?

Many thanks,
Gunter

Pilou, I downloaded V5 Beta and now I see this:



What do I need to enter as in the Key and Value fields?
Are the items then grouped together so they can be edited/moved as one unit and if so, how would I ungroup them?

Thank you for your help!

I believe that for you case you don't need of the "object user text"

The next v5 beta will have an additional channel of document and object user text available for scripts to store data attached to the .3dm file or to individual objects. Those will be stored as key/value pairs so that a script can use its own unique key name and not stomp on some other script's data as can happen using notes as a script data store.

You can all make just with the little menu and arborescence of the "Browser" when you have grouped somethings !
Select on the Browser or on the screen...

Hi Gunter,

Open the browser by clicking "Browser" in the bottom right corner and then click on the 3 dots next to "Objects". A menu will drop down like this:


Clicking "Group" in the dropdown menu will cause a group containing the selected objects to appear in the Objects section of the Browser:

Hi Peer,

OMG, it was that simple, thank you so much!

I'm assuming this is available in V4?

Many thanks!

Hi Gunter,

re:

No, grouping is new for V5, it is not available in V4.

hi gunter
在v4中我通常采用给对象共同命名的方式来实现分组,尽管整组一起选中只能在场景浏览器中完成,但是可以方便的进行重命名,并且不像用颜色那样眼花缭乱(In v4, I commonly group objects by assigning shared names. Although selecting the entire group is only possible in the scene browser, renaming is quite convenient, and it's less visually overwhelming than using colors.)
