Group

The Group primitive is a plain container — it holds other widgets so you can treat them as one. Add it from Add Widget → Primitives → Group, then nest your widgets inside it.

A Group adds no behaviour of its own; it's purely for organisation:

  • Move and scale together — reposition the whole group at once instead of nudging each widget.
  • Keep things tidy — group the widgets that make up one part of your layout (a "starting soon" card, a webcam frame, a lower third).

Group vs the effect containers

If you want a container that also does something to its children, reach for one of the effect containers instead — they hold widgets the same way but add motion or a visual treatment:

  • Slide — loops the group across the frame like a marquee.
  • Animate — plays an entrance animation on the whole group.
  • Transform — applies a shared skew, rotation, 3D tilt or scale.
  • Mask — clips the group through an image mask.

And the Alert / Alert Group and Show / Hide containers add event-driven behaviour.

Use a plain Group when you just want to bundle widgets together with no extra effect.
