Would it be possible to add a shortcut to enable / disable the content of a group in Grasshopper please?
I’ve been using a button which Andrew Heumann added to metahopper after I requested such a feature years ago. For a while already I’m trying to get rid of plugins I don’t necessarily need… So here we are…

Great suggestion! How about making it a toggle so Ctrl+E flips between Disable/Enable.
And do something visual to mark the group as disabled - maybe grey the background. Or put a red border around it.
All components would be disabled right?
Should be easy to see.
Panels are hatched when disabled but I think groups could keep their original color and don’t need any additional indicator.

Nicely done Martin - I’d be happy to live with that.
But wouldn’t a red outline around the group be nice too?
(I know - beggars can’t be choosey.)

Different color outline would be nice until the group for some reason has the same color as the disabled outline.

I’d call that a user problem, not a McNeel problem.

This c# disable group.gh (14.4 KB) (edited) is similar to previous, but with a cleaned up method to find the group, and then the same method used to apply the color to the group of the c# itself, one of its sources or one of its recipients:
[c# find group]
@djordje the tips from Shapediver make sense, but imo are useful just for small definitions with “few” parameters.
In my situation i am forced to divide the work into steps because 1- computing time would be too much (stuttering …
It’s a similar solution like the metahopper button.
Ideally Grasshopper would at least have a shortcut to select the content of a group. I know about right click select all…
