Grouping

When you assign a UDA to an object by using one of the methods in the previous article a group is automatically created for the UDA name in the Project Workspace > Groups pane.

In this view you can;
  1. Click on the UDA name to propagate the Properties Window with all the elements that are in the UDA group. You can then edit part or all of the properties as necessary
  2. Right click the UDA name and from the context menu Select in Visible view to see the elements defined with that UDA group
​
Step 11. Review the Project Workspace > Groups pane and try selecting some UDA groups
