Groups icons in 2005

[simon.lewington]

Help!

I have recently moved from AcadLT 2002 to Acad 2005. Everything is OK apart from the lack of the groups toolbar. This saved me a lot of time in LT.

I have made my own customised groups toolbar for 2005 by using the -group command line which allows me to create groups, toogle groups and open the groups dialog box.

I can't however find a way of ungrouping objects as the 'qkungroup' and '-pkfstgroup' commands in LT did.

Is there any way of customising Acad 2005 to allow me to ungroup (explode group) objects by command-selecting them instead of going through the long-winded process of retreiving the group name using the groups dialog box, then typing it in separately and pressing explode in the hope you got the name correct?

If you use the command -group (note the hyphen), you will get all of the group commands on the command line, although you still need to know the name of the group you want to explode (ungroup).

Thankyou very much Mike,
That's exactly what I needed.
I've even imported the LT icons as a finishing touch to my new 'retro' toolbar.
Many thankulatories
