Work with groups of objects

Group and ungroup objects

Grouping combines several objects into a single object so you can manipulate them as a
single object. Grouping is useful for keeping objects in the same position relative to each
other. You can cut, copy, and paste groups, arrange the group as a single object relative to
other objects, and apply the same properties to all the members of the group at once.

You can attach animation to a group, and any animation attached to individual objects in
the group remains active. The group animation generally takes precedence over the
animation of individual objects within the group. For more information, see page 22-16.

Deleting a group deletes all individual objects in the group.

To group objects

1. Select all the objects you want grouped.

2. On the Arrange menu, click Group, or on the Graphics toolbar click the Group tool.

The handles around each object are replaced by a set of handles around the group.
