is there any way we can create groups inside AutoDopNetwork so that we can separate particles and use those groups to affect force in specific area?

Like moogtastic said.
Add a popgroup and connect it to the Post-Solve port on the flip solver (any of the pink ports will do). Give the group a name in the “Group Name” field.

Hello Bonsak,

Thanks for the reply. I did use the “popgroup” node and made a group as you said But don't know how to use that group to use in force.Its not showing anywhere in forces. Please check the scene file if it will help you to understand what I am trying to do.

Thanks

Deb

Almost. Use Pop Drag into a merge node with the popgroup on the Flip Solver instead. Group names doesn't always populate the drop-down menus so you might have to write the group names manually. Your popgroup was set to “bounding object”, i switched it to “bounding box”
