Grouping and ungrouping vector objects


You can group several objects or groups of objects to move, resize, reshape, and change their lines and materials.

When you group objects on different layers, PaintShop Pro automatically moves them to the layer of the first object you select. Each group is labeled on the Layers palette and the objects in the group are shown as components.
