I've been having this issue for some time now, every time I try to make a group out of some selected geometry it feels like hit or miss. Let's say I have some imported geometry, I select the polygons I want to use in the group, right click on the import SOP's output and add a Group Geometry node. Most of the time it won't take the selection and assume I want the entire object to be part of the group…Is this a common beginner mistake?
if you select all the geometry in the view pane, then tab–>group in the view pane as well. If you dont have the selection tool enabled, and you drop a groupSOP down in the network view, it will group all primatives by default.
I do usually have the selection tool enabled, but have been using the tab key in the network view.. I tried using the group tool in the model shelf and that worked as a charm… Guess it is one of those catches of contextual views
