How do I make groups in 2.8?












4












$begingroup$


In the Blender Guru Donut tutorial he made a sprinkle for a donut. He copied that sprinkle and made a smaller version of it. He Shift selected both and made a group with the shortcut Ctrl+G. When I do the same it assigns both sprinkles into a collection. I have read that the layer system is redone completely. So when I make a group out of the two objects, is it the same as a group and where can I see that group?

          Groups and Layers were scrapped in blender 2.79 and merged into the same thing now.
          These things are called Collections.



          You can make a new collection by right-clicking in the Overlay panel and pressing "New".
          enter image description here



          Then you can rename your new Collection.



          enter image description here



          Then you assign your collection to be simulated in a particle system.
