Not "true" nested groups
Authored by: jscotta on Feb 09, '05 12:17:16PM

They are more like aliases to other groups. When you drag one group into another, it appears that it has done what you would expect. However the original group is still where you left it. If you delete that group, then the apparent group in the receiving group also disappears.

Boy that sounds convoluted. But give it a try. Make two groups. Drag group 1 into group 2. See that group one is now apparently in group 2. But also see that the group 1 at the root level is still there. Delete the group 1 at the root level. Look in group 2. Group 1 is no longer there.
