I had my "duh" moment for the week and realized after a year of using the program there is an easier way of attaching nodes and groups to a group besides manually editing the xml. One more though (so I don't have to wait another year to figure it out). Is there a way to NOT have a group show up on the side bar? I don't want my grouped groups showing up there.
To answer your question, I would have thought the settings for the group would affect this. I'm not sure what the Special Group or Global Bookmark does.

Both seem to have no effect that I can determine. Perhaps a yet undocumented or unimplemented feature.
Oshyan or Jo? Yo!
I don't think there is currently a way to remove a group from the group list on the left side, but the grouping functionality is generally still in progress.

I haven't seen any way to remove a group rectangle from the tree but this article might hide some secrets to it. http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=8 (http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=8)
Hi,
I was just thinking in the last few days that there should be a way to stop groups appearing on the left, and in fact I think new groups should not appear in that list by default.
Regards,
Jo

Global bookmark (check box): Sets whether the bookmark is global or local. If checked, a bookmark with the name of the new Group is added to the left hand bookmark menu in all node network areas. Otherwise, the bookmark only appears in the node network that contains the Group at the current hierarchical level.
I wouldn't want to remove a group on the left side. It's easier to use it that way. Just want it to work to our benefit.
Thanks for answering.
3D Studio Max has a nice feature in Grouping there model and instead of getting rid of the groups, all you need is a button to make them invisable or make them visable. That way you can work in areas and not have them show up in the scene Editor. So just need a on/off button for each node group. Shouldn't be to hard to make, and then to get them back maybe a show all button to get them back? Works for me /winks.
