Groups

A group is a named frame drawn around a few nodes, for example "Prompts" or "Upscale". It only helps you read the graph: ComfyUI runs the nodes the same with or without it. A group is kept in the workflow, so ComfyUI shows it too.

#How to group nodes

1. Select the nodes.
2. Graph ▸ Make a group from selection (Ctrl+Shift+G), or right-click one of them ▸ Make a group from selection.
3. A frame titled "Group" appears around them.

#How to rename a group

Double-click its title, type the new one, press Enter. Escape cancels.

#How to move a group

Drag the group by its title. Its nodes move with it, in one step of the history. The tooltip says: "Drag to move the group with its nodes. Double-click to rename."

#Which nodes are in it

The frame is drawn around the nodes of the group and follows them: you cannot resize it by hand.

• To add nodes: select them, right-click ▸ Add to group ▸ the group.
• To take nodes out: select them, right-click ▸ Take out of group.
• A group keeps at least one node: "A group keeps at least one node. To remove the group, use Remove group."

#Colour

Right-click the group ▸ Color and choose one of ComfyUI's colours, or No color. Nodes have the same menu, and Graph ▸ Color colours the selected nodes. The colours are ComfyUI's own palette, so ComfyUI shows them too.

#How to remove a group

Right-click the group ▸ Remove group. The nodes stay where they are.

#Ask about it

Right-click the group ▸ What is this group for? asks the assistant.

#Limits

• Groups live on the main canvas only, not inside a subgraph.
• A workflow from ComfyUI keeps its groups and their colours.
