So far when I import an obj file it comes in as one file with a bunch of groups and I'll been isolating the groups by copying the OBJ multiple times and using a Blast node to delete non selected. I was wondering if there was an easier way to break the groups into seperate objects.

Thanks,

The easiest way I can think of is to use the Modify > Extract shelf tool. This lets you create a separate object that merges in the selected geometry. When you're done, you can just undisplay the original object.

Thanks for the help. I was hoping there was a way to extract all groups into separate geometry nodes without having to do it one group at a time but I guess you can't have everything. At least in my object most of the groups are named so its not that difficult.
