Group or ungroup from elements

Post by Hausi »

It would be helpful if there was a way (shortcut or function) to group selected areas, such as two set stamps, so that their position relative to each other in the document could be moved. An example would be a stamp with an overlying image of a signature. Two elements that belong together. There is definitely no group or ungroup function. Will such a feature be possible in the future?

Hello Hausi,

Welcome to our Forum.


You can group the аnotations by several criteria:

...and while they are selected you can move them all.

Hello Hausi,

It seems to me that the "group" and "ungroup" you are referring to are not the "group" Dimitar is referring to. The "group" and "ungroup" functions you are talking about have been requested in the past in the following topic.

While they exist as commands in the Customize toolbar, they do not work at this time.

  • Are "cmd.group" and "cmd.ungroup" not yet implemented?

Hello, rakunavi

That seems to be the case, yes, and to answer the question captioned on your image, yes, these are not yet complete and do not yet server any purpose. In time that will change, but right now, there is no manual Content grouping option in the Editor.
