Edit group pop-up.

The editor has two columns, **Label** and **Settings**.

Use the **Master** fader on the right to set the level for the group. Read more in the [Group Masters](/grandma3/2-4/group_master/) topic.

Here is a description of the settings under the **Label  **column:

- **Name**:\
  This is the name of the group. It can be edited here or by using the Label command. For more information, see [Label keyword](/grandma3/2-4/keyword_label/).
- **Scribble**:\
  An existing scribble can be assigned, or a new one can be created by editing this field. Learn more in the [Scribble topics](/grandma3/2-4/scribbles/).
- **Appearance**:\
  An existing appearance can be assigned, or a new one can be created by editing this field. Learn more in the [Appearance topics](/grandma3/2-4/appear/).
- **Tags**:\
  The group can have one or more tags assigned. Editing this field opens the **Edit Tags pop-up**, where tags can be assigned and created. Learn more in the [Tags topics](/grandma3/2-4/tags/).
- **Note**:\
  The group can have a note. For more information, see [Notes](/grandma3/2-4/notes/).

Here is a description of the settings under the **Settings  **column:

- **Lock**:\
  The group can be locked by toggling this to **On**. This prevents changes to the groups settings and editing the content of the group. The group can still be used for fixture selection and in recipes.
- **Mode**:\
  Each group can have one of five different modes including **None**. The other modes can be used to limit the dimmer output or add dimmer output. Learn more in the [Group Masters topic](/grandma3/2-4/group_master/).
- **Move Grid Cursor**:\
  This setting defines how the grid cursor moves after the group is called. For more information, see [Selection Grid](/grandma3/2-4/operate_selection/) and [User Settings](/grandma3/2-4/user_settings/). 

Tapping Edit Content activates the edit mode for the group. This is used to edit the selection and grid potions. Read more below.
