You can take any one object and combine it with other objects to form a Group. The group remains as a group permanently (or for as long as you want).
If you want two or more objects to be connected so you can manipulate them, e.g. resize them, as one object, you can group them. In addition, you can split a group back into its individual components by ungrouping it.
Five basic procedural steps you can follow when you work with a group are:
Create a group. |
|
Configure the group's properties. |
|
Select an object in a group |
|
(Optional) Ungroup a group |
Object layout. |
