Unfortunately, I don;t have an answer for this problem but wondering if anyone can help with general group maintenance question.

Grouping and ungrouping objects by selecting them on a card works great in simple situations but when you have multiple levels of nested groups or hidden fields or even hidden groups (as recommended for tab controls for example), it can be a nightmare to add or delete an object. I'm wondering if I'm missing something and perhaps there's another way to add an object to a field without ungrouping and regrouping? What would be great is a drag/drop mechanism in the App Browser for example, or maybe a popup menu to select a group you want an object to be added to or removed from.

Mention of the new property for groups also reminds me to ask if there is a single place where all the changes that have been made in a Rev release are documented? I haven't managed to find anything like that for 4.0 and seems like that's kinda basic doc for a new release.

Recently, in one of my projects, the Application Browser stopped showing fields that were in a group. Furthermore, the fields in this group no longer allow text to be hilited. (The text can still be edited, but not something that is really usable.) The fields are obviously still there and running "put the num of flds of this cd" into the message box returns "18" Yet only one field shows in the Application browser. The field that does show is not in a group. I've tried trashing the preferences file and reinstalling rev. I was hoping not to deconstruct and rebuild the groups. Has anyone else run across this? Thoughts?
