## Frequently asked questions

### What is the difference between a container and a group?
60
62
61
-
The authoring group is a lightweight concept used for moving around controls and bulk editing similar properties of controls within the group. The authoring group doesn't affect the layout of the app.
63
+
When editing an app, you can select controls and group them using Ctrl + G or the context menu. You can modify common properties of controls within the group. Groups are an aid for app making. They don't have properties of their own and don't affect the layout of the app.
64
+
65
+
In contrast, containers are actual controls with their own properties like **Width** and **BorderColor**. Containers affect app layout and help screen reader users understand the structure of the app.
62
66
63
-
The container control previously shipped in experimental as a replacement for the authoring group renamed as the enhanced group. It was renamed to the container control as there's value in both a lightweight authoring group and a structured container control with additional properties.
67
+
While you can add any controls in a group, you should only add logically-related controls in a container. For example, [controls in a tile should be placed in containers](../accessible-apps-structure.md#logical-control-order).
