The GROUP command is used to define a group of objects and elements
for a succeeding command. Also a whole drawing or an element can be
defined as a group. Objects are selected - after activating the
GROUP command - by drawing a polygon with the mouse. The easiest
way to close the polygon is to use the right mouse button. Only objects
from displayed layers can become part of the group.
<p>
The group includes:
<ul>
<li>all objects whose origin is inside the polygon
<li>all wires with at least one end point inside the polygon
<li>all circles whose center is inside the polygon
<li>all rectangles with any corner inside the polygon
</ul>
<u>Move Group</u>
<p>
In order to move a group it is necessary to select the MOVE command
with the right mouse button. When moving wires (tracks) with
the GROUP command that have only one end point in the polygon, this
point is moved while the other one remains at its previous position.
<p>
For instance: In order to change several pad shapes, select
CHANGE and SHAPE with the left mouse button and select the group with
the right mouse button.
<p>
The group definition remains until a new drawing is loaded
or the command
<pre>
GROUP;
</pre>
is executed.
