I don't know if something has changed since the last update, but I cannot put Forms into Groups anymore. Usually when I try to insert a form into a group its placed outside of the group, and I then have to cut and paste into group. This doesn't seem to be working anymore.
Anyone having similar issues?
Hi @Anonymous ,
I've made a similar test and met the same problem like your description.
If I cut and paste a gallery to an existing group, it will not be added inside the group.
I suggest you ungroup the existing group, and then choose the controls that you want to combine(include the gallery), group again.
Here's a similar issue for your reference:

Thanks for your reply. This doesn't work for me. If I hold ctrl and select the form and then select another item to group with, it unselects the form.
Could you show me your screenshoots?
I've tested and could select form and other controls when grouping.
Not sure what to show you really as I cannot select a form and another object it just deselects it. This is me just testing on a blank screen with a button and a form. All I could show you is a picture of a form selected by itself, as that's all I can do.
Could it be one of the settings in my app, maybe?
Sorry that I did not think about this.
Please turn this off:(file->app settings->advanced settings)
If this toggle is on, then form can not be added in a group.
Tried this but still cannot select a form and another item. It just deselects the form.
That's strange.
In my test, only the setting that I mentioned will lead to this problem. Other tests all work well.

I will report this problem to my product team and if there's any improvement I will reply here.
Yes sounds similar only I cannot get as far as selecting a form and another object.
Thanks for your help 🙂
It does actually work (selecting a form and another control), if I select the controls in the TreeView on the left. It's just selecting the actual control on the main screen that has stopped working.
Thanks again 🙂
