Group panels are Custom Panels that link multiple channels from multiple devices and group them together on one or more controls. See the example below.
NOTE: Once a group panel is created, it is accessed and edited from the Custom Panels window tab.
The group panel is specifically designed to manage groups of devices and parameters. While you can use a Custom Panel to add a control and link it to multiple parameters on multiple devices, it is quite time-consuming. The group panel is specifically set up to save you time managing multiple devices. You can also copy and paste controls with their attached devices and parameters from a group panel to a Custom Panel and vice versa.
You can make changes to the look and feel of group panels with the same editing methods you use to edit Custom Panels.
In order for a group panel to be operational, it must be activated. Click here for an example of an activated group panel.
