Overview of Groups
A group is a saved set of objects that you can select and edit together or
separately as needed. Groups provide an easy way to combine drawing elements
that you need to manipulate as a unit. You can create them quickly and with
a default name.
You can change the components of groups as you work by adding or removing
objects.
In some ways, groups resemble blocks, which provide another method of
combining objects into a named set. For example, groups are saved from
session to session. However, you can edit individual objects in groups more
easily than you can edit them in blocks, which must be exploded first. Unlike
blocks, groups cannot be shared with other drawings.
