A project groups allow you to have multiple projects (packages,
libraries, executables) inside one project. The IDE shows you a flat
tree of your projects whereby one project is the active one (that one
will be used by "run", "compile", etc. shortcuts. You can compile
inactive projects by selecting the approbiate menu item ("compile" or
"build") from the context menu of the project. Switching the project
simply involves double clicking another project whereby the open
source editor files are not changed(!).
Can project groups build multiple projects all having their own compiler
settings?
Yes. They are all basically independant projects that happen to be
grouped together (but see below for an addendum).
If there are independent, then I would expect each one to have a session
of which units are open in the editor(s).
I would also expect to be able to open then outside the group, which
would require the session info.
If they have that info, what happens to it, when you open a project, as
you described, without changing the files open in the editor?
In the Delphi IDE the session info is coupled to the "main project"
which can either be a single project or a project group. In the latter
case the session info of the project group as a whole is used instead of
the session info of the single projects if it has any.
And: Can ONE project be in more than one group?
Yes.

Sven
