The Model Question Group Manager dialog provides a compact interface that lets you add, edit and re-arrange question group and their contents.
To access this dialog make sure a model is open, select the Question Groups menu, and click Manage Groups.
Accessing the Model Question Group Manager Interface.
You cannot make changes to existing groups unless they are checked out to you, and you cannot re-order groups using this interface unless you have every group in the model checked out to you. You can use this interface to check groups in or out, as required.
The window consists of two panels, the first of which is called Your Question Groups and lists every question group in the selected model.

You can make changes to this list using buttons in the panel's toolbar.

At the bottom of the window you'll find buttons that replicate the behaviour of the three mentioned above. In addition, the View button lets you open the Question Group dialog, even if you do not have the selected group checked out. Doing this will let you view the group's properties, but not modify them.
Use these buttons to manage your question groups.
The remaining buttons in the toolbar relate to Source Control of question groups.

| Check-Out Group | Click  to immediately check the selected question group out to you. This button will not be available if the group is already checked out. |
| Check-In Group | Click  to open a dialog that asks you to provide a check-in comment and, optionally, a check-in reference. After you provide this information and click Check In, the selected group will become available to other users. This button will be inactive if you do not currently have the selected group checked out. |
| View Check-In History | Click  to open the History window for the selected question group. This window lets you view a complete list of check-in entries for the group, including who has checked it in, when the check-in took place, and the comments and reference provided during check-in. This window is for information only, and pressing the OK button will close it. |
Ticking the check box immediately below the list will hide any question groups that you do not currently have checked out.
