Layout Groups The Rhino WIP now includes a feature called Layout Groups. Layout groups are logical groupings of layouts that organize your layouts. What is a Layout Group? A Layout Group is a collection of layouts that share common characteristics. They may be associated together for easier develop…

Awesome! [image] Mary Ann Fugier: Layouts can belong to multiple layout groups. Can this be done to layers also? “Layers can belong to multiple layer groups.” It would add another tool to the management of large models.

This is so important. Thx. :raising_hands:t3:

If the user tries to delete a layout from ALL while it still exists in some other groups will it pop up a warning window that lists the other groups it still exists in and asks if OK to delete from all groups?

I’d like to take the chance to suggest a few small additions/changes that would make the management of large drawing/print sets complete in my view (as in Rhino 8 …

Hi @romio82 , I’ve tune up the group expanding when you add a new layout. You can test next week. Layouts panel - expand group on new layout : RH-94170 https://discourse.mcneel.com/t/rhino-wip-feature-layout-groups/217016/9 If I see this correctly, the “All Layouts” Collapsible is expa…
