Group With Selection does nothing? (Moho 12)

Post by Muto Mapping »

Title says it all. When starting a new project, it works fine, but after making about 1-2 groups, it just stops working. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong?

Any way to fix this?

I never use the right click option, so I have never seen that issue. Try adding a shortcut to 'Group with selection' instead (I use Ctrl+G, for instance). Maybe that could help you.

I'm sorry, I can't reproduce the issue. I changed the shortcut to Shift+G and tried with the layers window undocked, but everything works fine here.
Does it happen to you with any project?

I'm sorry I can't recommend you anything more useful than trying reinstalling.
Please write if you discover anything that could be triggering the issue (clicking somewhere, a shortcut, undocking a window, using a second monitor... anything). By knowing that, maybe we could find a solution.

Are you making sure you're on Frame 0? This happens to me all the time.

Good call, Jkoseattle!

I use the right-click version of the Group With Selection command all the time and it works here, but I wouldn't have immediately guessed that it doesn't work on a later frame (or more likely I didn't remember.) :)

Just realised that's the reason why it does nothing. I wasn't on Frame 0. Just tried selecting the Group With Selection on Frame 0 and it works. I feel stupid right now, haha.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help me, guess I was too dumb to realise a rookie mistake :lol:

Well, enjoy it while you can blame mistakes on being a rookie. The time will come when that excuse doesn't fly anymore. Believe me, I know.
