Group and Ungroup Objects

You can group objects to easily maintain and manage your models. For example, you may want to group all the entities that you work with by category. When you create groups, it also helps ensure that single entities will not be inadvertently moved.

Note: To adjust alignment within the group, you must first ungroup the objects.

To group and ungroup objects

1. Select the objects that you want to group using the Select tool on the ERwin Toolbox.
2. Click Group on the Diagram menu.

   You can now move the group around the model as single object.

3. To return the group to individual movable objects, select the group and then click Ungroup on the Diagram menu.

   You can now individually move each object.
