# Create a node group
|
|
|
|
You can group nodes together in your graphs to help keep things organized.
|
|
|
|
To create a new group:
|
|
|
|
1. With a graph [open in the Graph window](vs-open-graph-edit.md), start in an empty area. Click and hold **CTRL** (macOS: **Cmd** + click) and drag to create a selection around the nodes you want to include in your new group. Release to finish creating the group.
|
|
|
|
2. (Optional) Click **Group** in the group's header to edit its name. Press **Enter** to save your changes.
|
|
|
|
3. (Optional) In the Graph Inspector, in the **(Comment)** field, enter any comments or information you want about your group. The comment is only visible in the Inspector.
|
|
|
|
> [!TIP]
|
|
> If the Graph Inspector isn't visible in the Graph window, select **Graph Inspector** () from the toolbar.
|
|
|
|
4. (Optional) In the Graph Inspector, select the **Color** field to open the color picker and select a new color for your group. When not selected, your group appears as this color. You can also select the eyedropper icon to choose a color from somewhere on your screen.
|
|
|
|
5. (Optional) To resize the group, click and drag from any edge or corner. To move the group and its nodes, click the group's header and drag.
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> You can also move your group without moving any of the nodes inside, but the required input changes depending on your chosen control scheme. For more information, see [Choosing a Visual Scripting control scheme](vs-control-schemes.md)

## Next steps
|
|
|
|
After you've created a node group, you can [add nodes to your Script Graph](vs-add-node-to-graph.md), [create and add variables](vs-add-variable-graph.md), or [add a Subgraph](vs-add-subgraph.md).
