Grouping content while editing your presentation will make it easier to modify multiple objects on the canvas at once, saving you valuable time while creating your masterpiece.

Grouping objects

1. Select the objects (text, images, videos, shapes, icons, etc.) you want to keep together by holding down the Shift key+clicking on the items or dragging the mouse to select the area with all the content you would like to add to the group.

2. The property bar will appear, click on the Group button. 

This means that if you select any of the grouped objects later on, all the other objects included in the group can be moved, scaled, and rotated together.

Editing an object within the group

If you want to edit a single object, click on the group and then select the object with a second click. Now you can make changes to it without modifying anything else in the group itself.

Ungrouping objects

To ungroup, first select the group, and then click the Ungroup button in the top toolbar.

Adding objects to a group and merging groups

If you select an existing group together with other objects (or groups of objects) and then click the Group button, it will be merged into the new group.

Animating groups

1. Select the group where you’d like to add the animation.

2. Choose the Add animation button from the property bar or right-click (CTRL/CMD+click) and select Add animation from the context menu.

3. Choose between the fade-in or fade-out animation to add it to the group. You’ll see it appear on the left sidebar timeline as Group.

4. To preview it, click on the Play button on the timeline. Here you can also change the order that will be presented by dragging it up or down.

When a group is removed (either by ungrouping or creating a new one by grouping it together with other objects), the respective animations will be removed.

The animation will not be removed if it was added only to an individual object within the group or if the object was animated with another element outside the group.
