Grouping - is there an option that ignores Alt-G

[Eric Milberger]

In another package we use they have two ways to group.

One is like we have today - if the Group switch is on or off an item is editable

They also have another which makes a group of then an object for a better term and you must drop it to edit it.

Advantages to both ways but I'd prefer the latter for somethings I am doing.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

"you must drop it to edit it"???

I also use Bentley OBD - it has groups liek we do then an association that behave a little differently and I understood to be more like autocad.
I like the way it worked at ATL-G causes ALL grouped objects to be editable for each peice
This other was kind of like a quick cell

I think it would be great if we could nest groups. That would be really handy.

I know that Graphisofts "solution" would be to just say: "Well, just make an object out of it" or something crude therelike.
However if you worked with nested groups once (Rhino...) you do miss them.
