Abilty to lock object size and group objects

I find it incredible that this doesn't already exist in Qlik Sense. I'd like the ability to lock an objects size on my sheet.

My reports undergo several revisions before they are published and one of my biggest frustrations is having to keep resizing objects if I need to move them across the sheet. It would be ideal if once I'm happy with an object, I could lock it's size so that if/when I move it to a different area on the page I won't need to resize it.

Additional to this is if I could group several objects and move them together without the need to resize. This is a standard feature of other visualisation tools so I don't know why QS is lagging behind on this?

Agree, it's incredibly frustrating.

Especially when you want to add something to the very top of the page and have to shuffle everything down one by one. Grouping would be amazing.

Yes! I play around in Canva a lot and so being able to select a part of the visualisation that I am happy with and group them together so that I can move them as a locked object would be perfect.

That and just being able to lock the dimensions of a chart. It is super annoying when I just want to switch the placements around for better flow and it changes the sizing and sometimes changes to design, like bringing back a legend or a title I have already turned off
