About Logical Groups

The Leader defines the associations of columns in the templates by identifying these columns using the same group type. The definition of logical groups is based on group types. Each logical group is identified by a number displayed on the upper-left side of its tile.

You can create several logical groups as follows:

• Objects can belong to several logical groups of the same group type.
  
  
• Objects cannot belong to several logical groups of different group type, because logical groups are mutually exclusive.

You can create a logical group by dragging an object in a cell, whose column belongs to a group type. The group number of the logical group is computed, attached to the object, and displayed on the upper-left side of its tile. The first proposed group number is 1, the second 2 … Each dragging action creates a new logical group.

You can edit the number of a logical group:

• To insert a tile into an existing logical group number of the same line.
  Notes:

  • In a causality relationship, all the tiles that have the same number belong to the same logical group.
  • If the number is long, it appears truncated. To see the entire number, hover over the number.
• To move a tile from a group to another of the same line.

If several tiles are dragged in a cell, they are ordered in the cell following the order of the lowest group number.

Tip: The creation of groups is a way to reorder objects in a cell.
