4.6.4 Grouping Controls

Grouping relates controls, such as radio buttons, to one another.

Controls can be grouped using the mouse.

Follow these steps to group controls using the mouse.

  1. Move the cursor to a clear part of the form, ideally adjacent to the controls to be grouped.

  2. Press and hold down the left mouse button and drag the cursor across all of the controls to be grouped. This action draws a frame around the controls.

  3. When all of the controls to be included in the group are framed, release the left mouse button.

Alternatively, you can create a group by pressing the SHIFT key as you select individual controls. Follow these steps to group controls by clicking on them.

  1. Select the first control to be included in the group by clicking on it with the left mouse button.

  2. Press and hold the SHIFT key and simultaneously select the other controls to be included in the group. White control handles display around the controls that are included in the group. A blue border is displayed around the currently selected control within a group.

  3. When all of the controls to be grouped have been selected, release the SHIFT key.
