Std CreateGroup

Description
This command lets you create a group in the tree view.

It can be used for organizing the structure of your model.

A group will be created automatically and give the icon of a directory and an automatically chosen name.

You can rename the group by right-clicking on the group and choosing "rename" or using "F2" on your keyboard.

Push FreeCAD-objects into the group or pull them out of the group by clicking on the desired object,

keep left-mouse button pressed and using drag&drop-style to drag the object to desired new location.
