Grouping and Aligning Objects
Posted: Thu Jul 05, 2012 4:45 pm
It is possible to deal with a group of page objects at the same time by dragging a box with your mouse around the objects. To do this, hold the left mouse button down on the page background at the top left corner of the objects you wish to group, then drag a box to the bottom right. An object’s boundaries must be completely covered by the group box in order for it to be included in the selection. You can also Control-Click individual objects to select / deselect them.
Once done, the selected objects will have a border color as defined by the highlight icon at the page menu level. At this point you will be able to move all the objects with your cursor arrows.
You will also see the group menu options, shown below.
You then have the following options to perform on all the objects:
