Create group by Ids, it works - BUT?

Ok, so the reason it is creating 5 groups is because you’re using the ‘Group.From.Elements’ node 5 times and feeding it 5 lists of elements.

If you want to create that group and then place it 4 more times it would be best to use only 1 Group.From.Elements’ node and then place the group 4 times using 'GroupType.Place which is in the Orchid package.

The current problem with the method I have shown is origin definition for placing the groups. Creating a group places the origin at the centre of the elements. So you then need to place the following groups based on that known difference (not like I have) but will leave that for you to work out.

This method ensures there is only 1 instance of the group in the browser.
