A group of objects can be selected in three different ways:
- Select one object first of the group you want to select and then step by step, with the Control key held down, select all the other objects.
- Select one object first and then right-click. In the resulting menu, click on either Select Like or Select Exact, depending on what type of objects you want to select.
- With the Mouse select tool, draw a lasso around all the objects you want to include into the group. To do that, with the left mouse button pressed, start to draw a dotted line around the group of objects. Each time when you want to change the direction of the dotted line, let go of the left mouse button and then left-click again and move the mouse, with the left button pressed, into the new direction until you have drawn a line around all the objects. To close the selection lasso simply draw the line across a previous part of the line and left-click. This selects all objects within the lasso.
