No more automatic grouping ?

I noticed with the new Archicad28, the walls that are build with magic wand  (or in chain) are not anymore grouping automaticaly, why is this ?

I find it annoying, because usually I work on these walls as a bloc..

At least this what I was doing before. I can't figure out yet the advantage of this change..only the disadvantage and slowing the process. 

Same is for the lines..

Does anyone finds it annoying too ?

Is there any chance that the "autogroup" setting is disabled....?

Just enable it.

Indeed !!

The automtic grouping was disabled, I have never knew there was this option in other versions was by default 🙂 !

Anyways, thanks, I have enabled it and now it works again 🙂 

So many years of Archicad and still so many things to discover !
