It would be helpful to have a command to add or subtract items to/from a group without ungrouping and reselecting.

Rt click on a group and have an add to then pick the item to add.

The deep select tool could rt click on an object inside a group and have a remove from group in the menu. or the remove from group could be in the concept explorer menu when the group is selected.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I would like to second that. I, too, thought of this, but my bad memory helped me forget.

Along the lines of that, I'd like to suggest (or be informed of doing it if it's possible) the ability to make possible a non-linear/non-sequential show/hide (might be only useful for cases when no adds or deletes of significant changes in geometry occur) so that the model can be inspected without too much reliance on turning layers on and off. This might be most useful when layers turne of are of because they tend to be in the way, yet, from time to time parts need to be revealed randomly and only for a few seconds.

Jason,

Great idea, there is no way to do this in the current UI. I added an add and remove items to the right button on a group in Shark V6.

Think this one's going to save me quite some faffing about - good thinking Jason !
