Making a Group of Mimic Objects

You can group Mimic objects together. This is useful when you have several Mimic objects that form a larger object, for example, you could have several separate Mimic objects that represent the various parts of a pump. By grouping the objects, you can move and resize them as a single object rather than as individual objects.

To group Mimic objects:

  1. Select an object that is to be in the group.
  2. Press the Shift key and keep it held down.
  3. Select the other Mimic objects that are to be in the group in turn, keeping the Shift key pressed down.
  4. When you have selected the Mimic objects, press the right-hand mouse button to display a context sensitive menu.
  5. Select the Make Group option to group the Mimic objects.

Alternatively, you can draw a selection rectangle over the Mimic objects that are to be in the group (first, check that there are no drawing tools selected, and then draw the selection rectangle by pressing the left-hand mouse button down and dragging the cursor over the Mimic objects). When you have drawn the selection rectangle, the Mimic objects in the rectangle are selected. Press the right-hand mouse button, then select the Make Group option from the context sensitive menu.

If you want to take Mimic objects out of a group, right-click on the group and select the Break Group option. This cancels the last group formation.
