I wondered why i cant open subgroups, until i read that they are not supported yet. Is there any release date, when they will be implemented as streamdeck integration?

thank you

Most likely not very soon. Better subgroup support is on my TODO list, but it's complex and currently has low priority.

You can workaround it by creating disabled (i.e. hidden) top-level groups that you explicitly show via action:

you can simulate endless grouping that way, the action can show hidden groups, so you can put action1 to open hidden groupB in hidden groupA, and add action2 to open hidden groupA at the top level

wait.. you mean i can structure my actions in folders AND Subfolders?

and with an action key in my root folder, i can open up a "subfolder"?

hmm. ok hiddenfolders in root work, but hidden folders in hiddenfolders do not work here. do you have an example template to try?

also when i am in a folder and have an action key to open up a hiddenfolder in root, it does not work.

Oh true, there seems to be a bug currently. At the moment it only works when closing the group first before opening another one:

ah okay, now this is working. However I cant get Button LONG presses working in those hidden sub groups. They work elsewhere, but in hidden subgroups, they dont work. Can you confirm this?
