What is the best way to group HUD widgets to so it will be easy to remove the group?
I was thinking about making a panel and set the background to null and then add the widget to that panel but has it any performance issues?

It shouldn't be too much.. Hmm wait there is the glScissor which would be called uselessly..
Marvin ?

The glScissor is not too expensive. You won't probably notice the performance impact. But I could provide a method to disable the scissor. Please tell me, how big the performance impact is on your system.

But isn't there a better way to do this?

Definitely not. It is the way, the HUD system is designed for.

But you could write a class, that provides methods to add Widgets and a method to detach them from their parent WidgetContainer by one call. But you would loose all the benefit, that a parent container gives you (like positioning of the whole group).
