2. You will need to provide a name for this particular Group, and can then proceed to select existing tiles and change their position in the group by clicking and dragging them or using the Left/Right arrows on top. If you do not yet have Tiles to associate with this group, you can immediately save the Group, create or import Tiles and return to this Group for editing.

3. Once you have completed making your changes to the Group properties, click on the Apply & Close button at the bottom of the screen. Your new Group will now appear underneath your selected Layout within the Layouts branch in the MobileHMI provider's project explorer, as shown below.
