It’s ModelPanel.groupCmd(items, name=None). The items can be models and/or groups. It returns the new group formed. You should probably provide the ‘name’ argument, since otherwise it’s possible the user would be prompted for the name. If there’s no particularly obvious name for you to use, you can use ModelPanel.defaultGroupName(items) to generate one.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">—Eric</div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">
