Questions this guide answers
How do I make two tables move together?
Select both, by dragging a box across them or Shift-clicking each, then press Command G, or Control G on Windows, or choose Group from the right-click menu. The group moves, rotates and copies as one, so a head table made of two tables never opens a gap.
How do I change one table inside a group?
Right-click the group and choose Edit inside group, then click the table you want to change; press Escape to step back out. To break the group up for good, select it and press Command Shift G, or choose Ungroup from the right-click menu.
Can I group chairs, décor and tables together?
Yes. Anything you can select can go into a group: a head table with its centerpieces, a stage with its lectern and monitors, a bar with its back bar. Copy the group with Command D to repeat the whole set somewhere else in the room.
