Groups

Everything a layout or template makes stays together as a group. Select, move or delete a whole town at once, or work on one house in it.

For App · browser and desktop · Updated

You'll find a group in the plan list, move it as one piece and change single objects in it. Free to plan alone · No account

Where groups are

The plan list on the left has a Groups part at the top. Each group shows its name, for example "Grid city 1", and how many objects and buildings it has. A template's group is named after the template.

  • Click the group to select all of it.
  • Click the arrow next to its name to open it and see its objects. Click one to fly to it.

Select the whole group

Click the group in the plan list. Or select one of its objects: the inspector says Part of and the group's name, with select all.

Move it

Drag any selected object and the whole group moves along. Alt+→ nudges it by 1 block (with Shift by 10). R turns it by 90°.

Change many at once

With the group selected, the inspector sets Colour (all), Status (all) and, when all objects are of one kind, Material (all).

Delete it

Del or Delete all removes the selection. Ctrl+Z brings it back.

One object in a group

Click a single house on the map. You can rename it, give it its own block or status, reshape it or delete it. It stays part of the group.

Reuse a group

Liked how a group turned out? With it selected, Save as template… keeps it for placing again. See Templates.
