Hallo,
if I make a group of say three objects, and click on one of the objects, I get selected only one. I read I should work it out through the hypergraph, but I'd like to select things on the stage, it'd be more practical and easy...... How can I proceed?

thanks in advance!

all you have to do is one thing. After you group it, and say you click on a object that was grouped just push the up arrow on your keyboard it will, go up to the top of the heirchie ( I know I didn't spell that right), and every object from the top down is slected.


If you look in your hypergraph, and then click and object, look at the hypergraph, then push the up arrow, and you'll see what I just explained.



peace

a little error.

you don't select all objects with that, you just select the parent of the actual object. that's not the same. push the up-arrow and rotate, and after that select all objects in the group in the outliner and rotate.

Difference !!

hi,
select one of the group`s object, push up arrow, then go to
Edit -> Select Hierarchy and voila, everything is selected... or if what you want to do is select the parent of the hierarchy when you select an object of the same hierarchy, you can use the Select by hierarchy and combinations button on your statut line...

Hope it will help you :)
