Object Grouping Tools

When you group objects, they will behave as one big object.  This means that all the grouped elements can be moved together as one without losing their placement in relation to each other.

To Group Objects:

  1. On the Design Desk, select all the objects that you want to group. To do this, hold down Shift and click each one. Each selected object displays with handles.
  2. Click on the Home Tab.

  3. Click on the Group button from the Home Tab.

  4. Choose Group from the group menu.

The objects will then behave as one object, displaying one set of handles around the entire set. You can now move all the objects at once.

Note: You can add additional items to your group by selecting both your Group and any additional objects and then following the instructions above.

 


To Un-group Objects:

You can un-group objects that you have previously grouped, allowing you to move them.

Note: If objects in a Ready-Made layout project seem unresponsive when you double click them, the objects may be grouped.

  1. On the Design Desk, select the group.
  2. Click on the Home Tab.

  3. Click on the Group button from the Home Tab.

  4. Choose Un-group from the Group menu.
