Grouping and ungrouping objects

If you have carefully positioned several elements in relation to each other, and you want to be able to move and manipulate them as if they were a single object, you can group them.

1. Select the objects using one of the following methods:

  • From the toolbar, click the pointer arrowhead icon and then Ctrl+click or Shift+click the objects.
  • Using your mouse, click and drag entire the entire objects you want to group so that a blue bounding box appears around them.

2. In the toolbar, click the Group button or right-click and choose Group.

3. To break up the group and treat each element as an individual object again, select the group and click the Ungroup button.
