I’m using UE5.8 - I have a group of about 122 actors that are joined in one group, only one them needs to deleted from the group. I tried many ways to separate that item/actor from its group but the ungroup and unluck functions are applied to all the items. and I have to go and select them all and group them again, which is not a practical way. Please before anyone suggests a method to do so (Ungroup one item only without ungrouping the whole items from one another), please try it and see that method works. Thanks in advance.
I know two methods of doing so. I’ve attached description, but you can also see it on the clip below (I’m currently on 4.27 but it works on 5+ as well)
Method 1, ungrouping and grouping
- Select your group
- simply Ungroup (but don’t click anything afterwards so you don’t deselect all actors) [shift+g]
- hold control and click actors you want to remove from selection
- group again [ctrl + g]
Method 2, actually removing from group
- click your group
- right-click and select group->unlock
- select actors you want to remove from group
- right-click and select group->remove from group
- at the end you can again Lock your group, just right-click any of the actors in the group and select group->lock
cheers
