how to ungroup a group of one

[Chipp Walters]

Slava,

Chances are it is ungrouped, but just not displaying correctly in the
Application Browser. Try hitting the refresh button at the bottom of the
Application Browser tree and the App Browser will show again the current
group structure.

This bug is why I wrote the Group Manager plugin for LiveCode:
