Managing groups

Groups keep your dashboard tidy. They let you arrange clients, dummy clients, and monitoring targets into sections that match how you work — for example "Stage", "Lobby", or "Control Room" — and they let you act on a whole set of devices at once.

There's always a built‑in No Group section for anything you haven't sorted yet. It stays pinned at the bottom and can't be deleted.

Creating a group

  1. Switch to Edit mode (bottom‑left).
  2. Click the + menu (top‑right) and choose Create Group (or open Manage Groups).
  3. Enter a name between 3 and 50 characters. Names must be unique.
  4. The new group appears straight away.

Editing a group

  1. Open Manage Groups from the + menu.
  2. Click a group to open it.
  3. Change the Group Name — it saves automatically as you type. (You'll see a warning if the name is too short, too long, or already in use.)
  4. The editor also lists everything assigned to the group, and shows the group's ID (with a copy button) for use with OSC/API.

Reordering groups

  1. Open Manage Groups.
  2. Drag a group by its grip handle to move it up or down.
  3. The new order is saved when you drop it. No Group always stays at the bottom.

Assigning devices to a group

There are two easy ways:

  • Drag and drop — in Edit mode, drag any tile into a different group on the dashboard.
  • From the editor — open a device's gear icon, pick a Group, and save.

You can also remove a member from inside the group editor; it moves back to No Group.

Deleting a group

  1. Open Manage Groups and select the group.
  2. Click Delete and confirm.
  3. Anything that was in the group is moved to No Group — nothing is lost.

Acting on a whole group

Groups aren't just for tidiness. You can target an entire group with remote actions over OSC or the HTTP API — selecting it, waking it, or running a script on every member at once. See the OSC / API reference for the exact addresses.
