View Ref-FileFormat of group files
File - Show Info... (Group object)                                    Thing

In this dialog the group object attributes can be set.


      An  Alternate  + double-click on a file in a group opens the 
      directory that contains the file itself, and the file is selected 
      automatically.


Title: Any desired title to be used for the object in the group,
  up to 32 characters in length; mixed upper and lower case can be used.

Group path: Complete path to the group window.

File/Folder: File or folder name of the object/s. Thing recognises 
  folders from the closing backslash '\' character and automatically 
  adapts the object type to suit.

Parameters: Command line parameters for executable programs. 
  Parameters for folders are interpreted as file masks, in the same way 
  as used in the Function keys dialog.

Pass also with Drag&Drop: The parameters specified for programs are
  normally passed only if they are started with a double-click. If this 
  option is active (crossed) the parameters will be used also if one drags 
  files onto the group object. One can temporarily reverse the effect of 
  this option for Drag&Drop operations with the  Alternate  key.

 OK : The current data is updated and, if multiple objects were selected,
  the details for the next object is displayed.

 Next : This button is only available if several objects were selected. 
  Select this button to display the details for the next object without 
  updating the details for the current object.

 Cancel : Exits the dialog without updating any details.
