5.5 Group (selection)
In the Group menu you find the commands to select objects to a group as well as the operations which can be
performed on an object selection. A selection is used as a temporary group to facilitate editing. A group selection
is not saved in a layout.
Objects can be selected and deselected. Object properties can be loaded to all objects of the group. The whole
group can be deleted, stacked or hidden. The sources of all contained video objects can be frozen and the objects
can be aligned. Only one selection is possible at a time.

The command Group selection must be checked to enable all other commands in the Group menu and in the
Selection and Edit selection toolbar. The
or button indicates whether Group selection is enabled or
not.
To switch Group selection, also the shortcut key Alt+G can be used.
If the Group selection is enabled, a double click on an object does not longer open the Edit
object dialog but adds and removes the object to the group.
