Confusion: Nested Actions or Projects?
 
I find the UI rather confusing when it comes to nesting items in the content (outline) region of the window. Let's say I have a series of 4 actions in a project. If I indent the 3rd one, does that turn action 2 (the one above it) into a project? The inspector and the fact that it has a parallel/sequential toggle would lead you to believe so. Yet it doesn't show up in the list of projects in the sidebar, and it still retains an action checkbox on its left. But it's not really an action either, for there's no dot next to it on mouse over, and it can't be dragged. Is it some kind of project/action hybrid? Any help in understanding this would be appreciated.

Yup, it's called an "action group."

Aha, thanks for the tip. I just found it in the help.
