To add more objects to a group
1.
Select the group.
2.
Ungroup ("Ctrl + U")
3.
Select the extra objects.
4.
Group again ("Ctrl + G")
You can also incorporate a group into a second group by omitting step 2. Web Designer Premium
remembers the original grouping information. If you ungroup the objects later, the original group remains.
Removing objects from a group
1.
Ungroup the objects.
2.
"Shift + click" on the objects you want to remove. This deselects them; the other objects remain
selected.
You can then choose "Arrange" > "Group
" to regroup the remaining objects.
Selecting a single object from within a group
This feature is useful for changing an object's color, for example. "Ctrl + click" on the object (you can
also use this to select a "group within a group"). Pressing "Tab", or "Shift + Tab" moves the selection
within the group, to the next, or previous object. Once you have selected an object inside a group, you
can also use "Alt + click" to select the object under the selected one.
This is called "select inside".
Groups and layers
There's more about layers in Layers
.
If all the objects to be grouped are in one layer, the group is created in that layer. The group is at the
level of the highest member of the group, i.e. the group does not automatically become the front object.
If the objects are in more than one layer, then the group is created in the layer containing the object
nearest the front.
