      Thanks for these models, I've tried to figure it out and implement it to my idea, but still I don't get it. Can you just make that for me?:

      1. 3 subgroups with different sizes, same axis
      • first click: red, blue rotates by 45, 90, green no change
      • second click: going back to start positions (0, 0)

      1. 2 subgroups with different sizes, same axis
      • first click: red changes its size (2)
      • second click: whole group rotates by 90 (3)
      • third click: red gets original size (4)
      • fourth click: back to start/rotation -90 (1)

          Thank you, I still can't recreate the same objects having same values.
          ad 1: error in

          =-Group!switch*90

          ad 2: error in

          =choose(Group!switch,180,180-15*Group!counter,30,30+15*Group!counter)

          Also, one more animation:
          4. 2 subgroups

          • first click [right]: bigger subgroup rotates holding to smaller one, whole group moves to stick with wall object (independent object)
          • second click [left]: goes back to 90 rotation and sticks to the wall

            Without the file, I can't be sure, but is the child label "group" as well as the parent? if so then there is a reference to the same. Double click one of the labels and change the name
