Is the group frame still available in Blue Iris version 5?

I cannot find it. I use this all the time in version 4 and I do not want to get version 5 if this is no linger available.

Adding this right now to .57, it will be a right-click menu option.

The option opens all cameras in the group at once into a desktop window.

I want my selected group to open in a desktop frame because I use multiple monitors and I keep each group open on a different monitor.

So in version 4 if you click as shown in the photo below it opens in a new desktop frame, I cannot find this option in version 5 or I am over looking it.

I keep learning new things. Knew about the 'Open in desktop frame'. Didn't know about the group option.

Ken is the developer, so it will be done :idea:

I now have the ability to open groups into their own desktop frame, Thanks Ken.

Now onto the next issue with group frame that opened in a new desktop. In the group frame when you right click on one of the cameras and select Auto-cycle camera group, it does not work. Instead it is cycling my camera clips not the group frame.

As a newbie, trying to find out how to auto-cycle all cameras (in a group?) on a second monitor, where the dual monitors are configured as Extend in Windows.

I'm thinking I will may to open a group in a new desktop frame and then slide that over to the second monitor and then auto-cycle the group? Can't try it out here at home since I don't have Blue Iris here--any help would be appreciated...

Thanks very much.

Did this get added? I don't see a right click to pop a group of cameras into a new frame. I am on 5.7.9.9.
