I know I'm not that new but this is a newbie question.


I was wondering if there's a way to group/glue or ungroup polys in workspace? I know in modeller you can use glue as sibling but wanted to know if there was one...if not, devs...can we have one please...


TIA.

Glue/group, yes - it's now called 'encapsulate'. Button is down on the lower right.


Un-glue/group, no. You have to pop back to model side to do that with the standard split hierarchies, etc, tools.

Of course if all you want to do is move a selection of objects together I just "Ctrl Select" a group of them.

If working on the Model side, you can use the scene Editor to unglue.

That's what I've been doing in the past but I'm trying to stay clear of modeller. The LE does the job.


Roll-on proper glue/unglue and booleans in workspace...
