5.9.2.3.2.  Creating variable groups (at catalog level)

[Note]Note

The item is only displayed on catalog level.

Creating variable groups has the advantage that they can be selected separately. The user has a much better overview when determining the variables in 3Dfindit / PARTdataManager or PARTcommunity if the table is smaller and fewer variables are displayed at once.
