Grouping and ungrouping objects


    You can combine several objects into a group so that the objects are treated as a single unit. You can then move or transform a number of objects without affecting their individual positions or attributes. For example, you might group the objects in a logo design so that you can move and scale the logo as one unit.

    Groups can also be nested--that is, they can be grouped within other objects or groups to form larger groups.

To group or ungroup objects:

  1. Select the objects to be grouped or ungrouped. Selecting part of an object and grouping it will group the entire object.
  2. Choose either Object > Group or Object > Ungroup.
