When you right-click on a group, it "ungroups" to display the routed Layer 3 topology. To unbundle all of the groups, navigate to Maps > Group  and click Ungroup All. "Ungrouping" pertains to groups only. It displays bundles of L3 and sometimes L2 topology, but does not "expand" these.

With groups unpacked, Layer 3 topology nodes display.

Blue badges


Blue badges indicate a device having one or more attached Layer 3 (L3) forwarders such as routers. In order to tell whether there are groups of L2 devices hanging off the groups of L3 bundles, one must expand the group. 

Green_badges 

A green badge indicates that the device has one or more attached Layer 2 hosts such as switches. It also indicates that the device does not have any attached Layer 3 hosts (because if it did have Layer 3 hosts, the badge would be blue.


If you right-click on a green badge, you will  see the Expand Layer 2 Topology option, L2s are attached to the device.You can expand the L2 topology to show L2 switches and endpoints that do not forward traffic. The number  of L2s in the badge includes the total of L2 forwarders plus L2 non-forwarders (endpoints).

Here is a view of showing Expanded Attached Hosts:
