Move Multiple Objects

Hi,

I have a doubt that can i move multiple objects in a sheet at a time ?

For Ex: I have 3 List boxes, 2 Text objs and 2 Charts

             and I want to position them properly depend on the clients visible requirements.

To move them, i need to position each obj separately. So is there any option to move all objs at a glance ?

Thank You

When you need to move any chart /listbox together with a text object, its best to use the mouse to click-hold-drag to collectively highlight & select all the objects

then either use ctrl + Shift & Arrows or ctrl & Arrows to move.

Using Shift + click to select a combination of textboxes and listboxes/charts will only select the listboxes/charts and will not move the textobject.

Select them all and then drag them to where you want them or use the CTRL (+SHIFT) and arrow keys to move them.

You need to activate all objects by clicking on them by pressed shift-key or per lasso-selection with the mouse and you could drag them together with the mouse or by arrow-keys. Further if you then make a right click on one object you will get various options to position them.

Yeah, that is my question.

When i tried to select multiple objs by pressing CTRL button they are not collectively selecting, i even tried with SHIFT key but they are not selecting all at a time.

When i click on Left Mouse Button and select a set of objs, then only they are getting selected.

how to select by using keyboard instead of Mouse ?

If you want to select all objects at the same time then use CTRL+A.
