Creating presets with groups within?

[m.lamme]

Hi, just made my first railing that I was so satisfied with that I wanted to make it a preset.
Sadly, it didn't work at all as I was expecting. There's only one segment that becomes "embedded" as I use it in another scene. I've managed to locate it down to that I'm using grouped objects as the other segments. If I skip groups it works fine. But it would be nice to be able to create presets with groups within the preset.

Or am I wrong, and I have just missed something?

Hi,

I'm afraid, that using Groups is not supported - as mentioned in our online documentation: "Groups cannot be 'embedded' within an RC object. When a Group is deleted from the scene, it's removed from RailClone as well."

We've not discarded completely the idea, but I have to say, that's not something feasible soon. Thanks for your comprehension.

Best regard,

Ok, thank you for the quick response! Not a huge deal, as long as you are aware of it when you start building with the intention to make it a preset.

@Michal,

How about a feature that would allow the library to merge the groups in the scene while loading the preset? 
That would be similar to the Forest Pack library mechanics, so maybe not so hard to implement?
