Grouping objects
Group elements to manipulate them as a single object. For
example, after creating a drawing such as a tree or flower, group
the elements so you can easily select and move them.
You can edit groups without ungrouping them.
To create a group:
| 1 |
Select the objects on the Stage you want to group. |
|
You can select shapes, other groups,
symbols, text, and so on. |
| 2 |
Choose Modify > Group, or press Control+G (Windows)
or Command+G (Macintosh). |
 |
|
To edit a group:
| 1 |
Choose Edit > Edit Selected, or double-click the
group with the arrow tool. |
|
Everything on the page that is not part of
the group is dimmed, indicating it is inaccessible. |
| 2 |
Edit any element within the group separately. |
| 3 |
Choose Edit > Edit All, or double-click a blank spot
on the stage with the arrow tool. |
|
Flash restores the group to its status as a
single entity and you can work with other elements on the
Stage. |
|
|
To prevent a group or symbol from being selected and
accidently changed:
Select the group and choose Modify > Arrange > Lock.
Choose Modify > Arrange > Unlock All to unlock all locked
groups and symbols.
