Hello fellow players and users of FG Classic!

I am quite new to Fantasy Grounds and wonder if I can make categories for all my images I have in FGC. At the moment there is a long list of pictures in my category "new". How can I create sub categories, like NPCs, battlemaps, region maps etc.? I found this old information: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?10324-Images-Folder, but I cannot find the therein mentioned "Add New Group icon (4 o'clock)" when I rightclick on my long list.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Try checking out this wiki article, and see if it helps.

First of all, thank you for your willingness to help, Moon Wizard, and your quick response.

Unfortunately, your link leads to the website of FG Unity, but I needed help for FG Classic. Even when I tried to follow the "image" topic via your link, I found myself in a dead end of the FG Wiki: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/wiki/index.php/Categories.
So does anyone else have any useful information perhaps?

Regards

Click the down arrow next to New and at the bottom you will see a / or pencil. Click that, click + and that will add a new category. Name the category what you want then just drag what you want into that category from new.

Thank you very much, Griogre. This is the solution I was looking for!

I have even found another post with the same answer 2 minutes ago, with screenshots: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forums/showthread.php?37538-Image-categories
I was just too blind to see that there is an edit button in the "group" field when you drop it down. Perhaps a permanent edit button would be easier to spot?

Cheers
