# MeasureGroup

Visual grouping of measure elements. Base class for measure group elements in cube.

### Description

The measure group is an abstract element that defines the basic properties of a measure group element. The derived elements, tabular and ODA measure groups, provide measure contents that are defined in this measure group itself.

A measure group creates a visual grouping of measure elements. The developer controls the order that groups appear in the UI, and the order in which measure appear in the group. A runtime UI may choose to allow the user to expand & collapse measure groups independently.
