<tmdoc-title|Editing groups of objects>
\;
The rightmost series of icons on the second mode dependent toolbar is used
for editing groups of graphical objects. In group editing mode, you may
select or unselect objects using right mouse clicks. You may also select
all objects in a rectangle by dragging using the right mouse button. When
pressing the left mouse button, the current group operation is performed
jointly on all selected objects.
The following kinds of group operations are supported:
<\description>
<item*|Changing properties>Selected using <icon|tm_edit_props.xpm> or
<menu|Insert|Set properties>. The current properties (as indicated in the
focus bar) are applied to the selected objects.
<item*|Move objects>Selected using <icon|tm_group_move.xpm> or
<menu|Insert|Move objects>. The selected objects are moved until you
press the left mouse button a second time.
<item*|Resize objects>Selected using <icon|tm_group_zoom.xpm> or
<menu|Insert|Resize objects>. The selected objects are resized until you
press the left mouse button a second time.
<item*|Rotate objects>Selected using <icon|tm_group_rotate.xpm> or
<menu|Insert|Rotate objects>. The selected objects are rotated until you
press the left mouse button a second time.
<item*|Group or ungroup objects>Selected using <icon|tm_group_group.xpm>
or <menu|Insert|Group/ungroup>. The selected objects are grouped together
into a single object. If you selected one grouped object, then this
object will be ungrouped.
</description>
In the group editing mode, it is also possible to copy and paste groups of
objects.
