An idea of feature for Groupy

Make appear the name of a group opened

Hello,
When a group is opened, we cannot see it’s name.
I think that it is useful to know the name of the group opened.
Could you do it?
Thanks!

Could you be more specific about where the name would appear exactly?

Hello Neil,
To your question to know where the name would appear exactly,
my answer would be
on the right of the 3 dots, where I see always enough place for such an usage.
Other solution:
Between the “+” sign and those 3 dots.
I don’t see where else.

It may be useful to know that the need to know the name of a group arose for me in the following situation, because it reveals two problems.

1) I created a group gathering the files necessary for a certain task.
2) I registered / named this group.
3) I then added files to this group and deleted others.
4) Not knowing how to save this group so that it replaces the previous one, I saved this new group under a new name. During my work, I had to do this several times.
5) The next day, not knowing which of these groups was right, I opened all of these groups.
6) By wanting to compare them, I needed to have before me the name of each of these groups, to know which ones to delete. And I had to close everything and open everything again to know that this group corresponded to such name.

This brings me to another problem:
When you activate the "Manage groups" command, you are in a window showing the shortcuts of the registered groups.
If you want to delete a group, you cannot do it there, because in this window, you only delete these shortcuts. The folder containing all the groups created therefore remains cluttered with obsolete groups.
There should therefore be a command to directly delete all traces of a group that has become useless and without having to go through the group management window.
