Object Groups
Object groups allow you to join objects so they can be moved, reoriented or duplicated together. Once a group is created and selected, all objects in the group are affected by editing functions.
Note: When snippets or templates are added to a patcher, they will be added as an object group containing all of the newly added objects.

- Choose the Group Objects item from the Arrange menu, or select Group Objects from the contextual menu.
- Once grouped, objects can be moved and edited as a single unit.
