'Phantom' Group
« on: December 27, 2023, 03:13:30 PM »
Hey All,

Testing some new props for next year and created a test directory.  I added a group called 'Test'.  Then I added a couple of models/props.  Went to add the new group to my 'view' area and couldn't find it.  Went back to controller tab and 'Test' wasn't there.  So, I created 'Test 2' and pressed on adding models/props.  This time 'Test 2' was there to move into my 'view' area.

I was toying with one of the props and noticed that it was included in 2 groups....'Test' and 'Test 2'.  What the snowballs?  I can't find 'Test' in my list of groups...even looked to see if it was in a subgroup some place....can't find it.  It also doesn't come up when I use filter in the layout tab...

Long story shorter....is there a way to find this phantom 'Test' group?  I'd just like to delete it and learn in the process....

Change the dropdown to "All Models" in the Layout tab.  That should show everything.

Thanks Gil,

Well...there's nothing listed in "All Models" but I looked under "Master View" and it WAS there.  I was able to move it back to the "Available" column but can't delete it there and it still doesn't show up in the Layout tab to delete it there either.....  I probably fat fingered it or something when I created it and XL is teaching me a lesson now!  Haha.  ;)

You can always "Package Log Files" and post it here.

Well it's not worth someone having to go through that.  I appreciate the suggestion.  I'll just start over as I didn't get that far along anyhow....just thought there might be a quick fix answer to try first.  Now if it does it again I'll take your suggestion and upload....  ;D
