The QL hierarchy

The main view shows the group and sub-group organization as a series of levels.

• The top level group is the root.
• Content and playlists assigned to this level can be shared across all sub-groups that appear under it.
• Players can only be assigned to this level if there are no sub-groups created under it.
• The levels under the root are where you find the sub-groups.
• Content and playlists assigned to intermediate levels can be shared within their sub-groups.
• Players can only be assigned to this level if there are no sub-groups created under it.
• The lowest level is where players are assigned.  This is the local level.
• Content and playlists assigned to the local level can't be shared with other sub-groups.

Users navigate levels by clicking on the arrows to the left of each level’s name.

Users can also expand or collapse all levels via the right-click popup menu.  Simply right click on any group and sub-group and select the desired option.

This menu also lets users select or deselect all the players with a single mouse-click. 

The selected option will be applied from the level the user is clicking on, so selecting “Select all” at the root level (top group) will select all of the players in every group below.
