This object allows you to group the objects found in the project. You can activate or deactivate the objects in each group you create in the project. Pick Objects: The objects to be grouped can be picked one by one. However, it is easier to select all group objects by picking the main object first, and then selecting the reference objects associated with the main objects using 'Select References'. Select Objects: Objects that cannot be picked, such as the wind load object which is not visible on the project screen, are selected using 'Select Object'. Active: According to the 'Activation/Deactivation Impact', active objects' 3D geometries, finite models, and design reports can be enabled within the group, while those of inactive objects are not displayed in the project. Activation/Deactivation Impact: The selection determines whether the object group affects the FEA model and/or Design reports. | Info |

To perform the grouping of objects, follow the steps below. |
