Santas Helper Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Not sure I worded the topic title right. I accidentally created new groups within a group which became sub groups. Is there a way to move that sub group to the main track to become a single group, not within an existing group? I looked at options but to no avail. Edit: I'm using 4.2.12 Thank you, Tom Edited July 16, 2017 by Santas Helper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close the sub group Right click on the sub group nameScroll down to Copy to Other TrackArrow over to Copy to Track NumberSelect Track 1Then can delete it from other track if choose to. I know, there's a move to track, but it scares me like a delete button. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying to change tracks, or simply get it out of a group under another group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k6ccc Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 I've got to run, but if you are just trying to get it out of a sub group under another group, if nothing else, just degroup it and the parent group. then re-group as desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And since I'm already in track #1, I assume it won't let me see the it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santas Helper Posted July 16, 2017 Author Share Posted July 16, 2017 I have never put a group inside of a group and when I tried to move it the first time, it didn't work. Lack of beer obviously. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[emoji41]Oh man. On track 2, have every group can think of with groups in the groups. Example:Have the obvious mega tree group with the super-strands you taught me; RWB-G. So inside of that group, I made a red strand group, a white strand group, ect.. I also use that on my bushes & globes, ect. Then made a Red Group, with the red mega tree group, red bush group, red globe group. Repeated for other colors. Want only all red on? Open the red group. But as George taught me, moving groups are only & always on track 2, so as not to screw with my master track..Then, whatever group I'm working on, drag it to the top to see beat marks & time scale, etc. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reversed the channel order on spinner B. Then copy A and paste = spin towards each other. Limitless when group within groups thinking takes over. My problem is what to do with it all. Creative blocks coupled with my already sucky sequencing can really slow me down. Bummer. Now I need more to drink..Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
