> This page covers the **PGroup node** of Thinking Particles in **Cinema 4D**. It moves particles into a chosen particle group — the routing mechanism that determines which rules and geometry apply to which particles.

This Node enables you to assign particles to a group. By default, particles are sent to the All group. This group is automatically created in the Thinking Particles Settings. Before you can assign particles to a different group using this Node, the group itself must be created in the Thinking Particles Settings — look up Particle groups for details on how to do this.
