[image] This one ig grouping by type but baking makes them individual: [image] How can I get Elefront’s: Group object in Same Branch.? Another question about baking: Why the upper needs the name and the lower one doesn’t? It is the same component. [image] [image]

Look here: [image] Grasshopper Rhino components cannot bake groups? Grasshopper Hi Martin, There is a feature request to be able to use Groups in Model content workflows, currently set to 9.x unfortunately.

What??? [image] Imagine baking thousand of objects on various layers without having ability to group them. It means V8 is not for us.

I’m baking tens of thousands of meshes. I’m often baking blocks. In the images below, each strut is a single closed mesh: [Screenshot 2025-02-02 182457] [Screenshot 2025-02-02 182340]

What if you wanted to select baked object within one cell? Nice stuff btw.

This one above is like 300 meshes in a block and then 7 to 14 instances of a block. So I could select the block, double click and edit if necessary.

you might group after baking i think by using the GUID of the objects from the content cashe output , with c# component you can iterate through each branch in the data tree , create a group for each branch and add those ids in the group

Agree, this is very inconvenient, native baking should work with groups as it does with other plug-ins.

i think content cashe still surpasses any other plugin out there as it understands Model objects created in grasshopper with their attributes , the tricky part is when you want to modify the objects afterwards using their IDs and it starts looping for some reason

No grouping before baking?
