Grouping and Ungrouping Objects

Each object on a slide, including text boxes, is an individual object. However, sometimes you want two or more objects to act as a group. For example, you might want to make the lines of several objects the same thickness or group several objects so that they can easily be moved together on the slide. If you want to treat two or more objects as a group , perform the following steps:

1. Select the objects you want to group. Remember, to select more than one object, hold down the Shift or Ctrl key as you click each one.

2. Click the Draw button on the Drawing toolbar to open the Draw menu, and then select Group .

3. To ungroup the objects, select any object in the group and select Draw , and then choose Ungroup .
