        It has a drop-down list of 20 names to choose from

          That seems very specific...
          I still don't see what combination it is you're looking for.

            Your plugin plus a drop-down list for the group names. Jim's plugin allows You to write 20 most used names in a text file for later use - useful in many fields where the parts are common - furniture and the like.

              Hey Thomas, love your plugins....
              With this one; do you think you could have the group added to a layer of the same name? If no layer, ask the user do you want to add a layer? Would be a great timesaver.....

              Thanks.

                It would be interesting if there was a box or drop down menu where it appeared the possibility to create and now include the object in a layer with the same name.

                Create components instead of groups might be interesting too.

                      Thanks a lot for this plugin.
                      I would love to see this plugin "Make Named Group" in the right-click-menu.
                      Is that possible?

                        It is possible - but if I where to add it I'd get requests about removing it from people who want to reduce the amount of items in the context menu. Right now I don't have the time to make a UI for controlling this option.

                            Just 'discovered' this plugin. Added an array with often used groupnames (SFB codes) which is displayed in the dropdown list instead of the layer names and this speeds up my workflow quite a bit. Many thanks for this gem Thom!
