Hi, first I would like to say thanks for the long missing group feature. Here some questions about it's usage and behaviour: 1. This feature can not be found in the documentation. Why? The documentation is great, but this feature is completly missing. 2. Why is it not possible to have empty groups? You always have to select a VM before creating a group and a group disappears after the last VM is removed. This is annoying. 3. How do I remove a VM from a group (GUI)? Pressing CTRL while dragging a VM adds the VM to another group. That's great, but how can I remove a VM from a group? I know how to do it on the CLI. 4. GUI and CLI are inconsistent in displaying group names. Why? GUI shows groups as "name" while CLI shows "/name". So if you want to add a VM to a group you have to type % VBoxManage modifyvm <VM-name> --groups /<name1>,/<name2> 5. This feature is moving files and dirs around. Why?
Adding a VM to a group creates a subfolder below machinefolder and moves the VM into it. This is confusing and triggers the backup to save unnecessary old content. Try this: % VBoxManage modifyvm OpenIndiana --groups /Solaris,/pfsense % find . -name OpenIndiana | head -1 ./Solaris/OpenIndiana % VBoxManage modifyvm OpenIndiana --groups /pfsense,/Solaris % find . -name OpenIndiana | head -1 ./pfsense/OpenIndiana What's the reason for this? I don't see any benefits in this behaviour. Thanks again for improving VirtualBox. Greetings Willi P.S. I'm using VirtualBox 4.2.0 on Solaris 11 _______________________________________________ vbox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://www.virtualbox.org/mailman/listinfo/vbox-dev
