Add to group
Purpose
Moves the selected elements, dimensions and hatches into an existing group; optionally a new one is created from the window.
Access
- Right-click menu of the drawing area: “⊕ Add to group…” (2).
- Tool window, section “Edit” (2).
- “Groups” section: right-click on a row → “Put selection into this group (n)” — puts the selection directly into this group without the window.
- Command search : “Add to group”.

Procedure
- Select elements; without a prior selection the post-selection starts.
- Call the command. If there is no group yet, the name field for a new one opens right away (Group elements). Otherwise the window “Add to group:” appears with all groups (subgroups indented, count in brackets), a search field and “+ New group…”.
- Click a group — or type a search word and press Enter with exactly one match. Esc or ✕ closes. Status bar: “n element(s) moved to group "…"”.

Rules
- The elements are taken out of their previous group (an element belongs to at most one group).
- Dimensions whose references now lie completely in the target group come along automatically.
- A group that becomes empty disappears — unless it was created empty on purpose or has subgroups.
- One undo step.
