How Can I better Organize, Manage, and Select my Macro Groups?

Hey @John,

By the way – welcome to the forum.

FYI – in case you didn't know – you can type-select in the Groups and Macros panels to more quickly get to the group/macro you want.

Automating the Keyboard Maestro Editor

See specifically the Move Focus to Group List AppleScript.

Paste it into an Execute an AppleScript action in a macro, give the macro a keyboard shortcut, and you're one keystroke from being able to move the focus in the Keyboard Maestro Editor to the group list and type-selecting the group you want to get to.

There's also @DanThomas' great macro:

Go To Group by Name (Spotlight)

And there are other ways to do this as well.

Your English is not bad at all, but like @cfriend I wasn't able to fully follow your explanation in post #5.

Keep in mind that you can post images on the Forum, and sometimes a picture (real or mock-up) is worth a thousand words.

Sometimes posting a video on YouTube is required to get the point across.

A quick and dirty example of my own:
