An object can be easily moved into a group by dragging and dropping it: pick it with the mouse, drag it while holding the left mouse button down, and finally drop it by releasing the mouse button.
You can make a copy, instead of moving it, by clicking and dragging while holding the Ctrl key simultaneously.
Any object can be made of one or more entities. For example, a cube-shaped object is made of six entities called faces. Just as to objects, you can apply the drag'n'drop technique to entities, though with some limitations. In fact, they can only be dropped into objects that are not the result of a construction tree (see also The Construction Tree).
This way, you can move or copy entities that belong to an object into another one. For example, in order to join two curves, you can move or copy one of the two curve entities into the other curve. This allows you to successively join the two entities using the NURBS Curve Modeling Tool panel.
To rename an object, just select it and click it again or select it and press the F2 key, and then type the new name.
The Browser also lists the cameras and the lights in the scene. If you select a Perspective camera, it will be displayed in the views allowing you to interactively adjust both its position and target hotSpots.
