P: Ability to organize Paths into Groups just like the Layers panel

I use a lot of paths for detailed retouching. I often run out of pallet space and have to scroll thru my paths to find the one(s) I need.It would be a big plus if the paths could be organized into groups just like the layers pallet.

    Grouping paths or alphas would be useful for heavy users, I imagine that backwards compatibility might be a problem for the programmers.

      @Ivan Zajats , 18 votes in 12 years just doesn’t seem to indicate a very heavy demand … which is not to say that the feature could not be useful.

      Adobe, please develop a solution. It would be extremely helpful to be able to group paths.

        Been asking for this for several years now. When are we going to get folders (groups) for the Paths pallet? Layers has had this for eons, but Paths never got it. Please make this happen. Oh look, there's one of my requests way back in 2012.

              Sorry if I responded to this before my my original reply is not listed.  I, too, use many paths.  The suggested idea would be great if implemented.  I have made a work around.  After finishing a section of paths, I add them all together, correct any spots where there is no overlap, then create a new path from the combination.  I  am also now using multiple count groups with different colors which helps keep track what what combination paths are where in the project.  Joe

                To manage all of your paths in a complex composing it would be very helpful if you could group paths just how you can group layers.
                I think this small feature would improve the workflow with paths a lot and I hope to see this in the next update.
