When you want to handle several objects as one object, you can create a group from existing template objects. When you need to resize or modify an individual object of the group you must ungroup the objects first.

To group and ungroup template objects:

  1. Select the template objects you want to group or ungroup.
  2. Right-click and select Group or Ungroup.

Double-click the group to open the Object Properties dialog box to modify the group. If you want to modify a single ungrouped item, double-click on it to open the properties dialog box.

Note:

Grouped objects have some limitations with regards to modifying them.

  • You cannot rotate a group.

  • If the group contains different types of objects, for example shapes and texts, you cannot modify its properties.

  • If you modify the color properties of the group, the new color is applied to both lines and fills.
