Grouping Objects for LT Users

Grouping Objects for LT Users
LT users have to use a slightly different method to create a group. If you’re using AutoCAD 2007 LT,
do the following:
1. Open Office1.dwg from the downloaded sample files. Metric users should open
Office1-metric.dwg.
2. Use the Zoom command to enlarge just the view of the workstation, as shown in the first
image in Figure 4.9.
3. Type G↵ or Group↵ to open the Group Manager dialog box.
4. Move the dialog box so that you have a clear view of the workstation; then, use a selection
window to select all the objects of the workstation. You can also click the individual objects
of the workstation to make the selection.
5. In the Group Manager dialog box, click the Create Group button. A new listing appears in
the Group Manager list box.



6. Type Station1↵ in the text box that appears in the group list.
7. Close the Group Manager dialog box.
Now, whenever you want to select the workstation, you can click any part of it to select the
entire group. At the same time, you can still modify individual parts of the group—the desk, partition,
and so on—without losing the grouping of objects.
