Is it possible to group items?

Edit Subject

Three years later...

Grouping permanently is such a common feature.

Why it was excluded from hidden frames is baffling and illogical.

I have contributed to this topic for over 2 years now. During that time, I sadly have NOT used Prezi for my presentations (nor recommended it to people) because the lack of persistent grouping made editing much more time-consuming than editing on Powerpoint.

Last week I decided to have a go at it again. Noticed the 'frame' solution to grouping and perceive it does indeed save some time. The 'shift-and-drag' solution does too.

I agree with the comments above about limitations to the frame solution and have one more to add: all items within a frame do move together, but they don't always resize together when using the zebra (it appears some items are more 'grouped' to the frame than others), only when merely clicking on the minus button.

A passable workaround I envision for not wanting the visual frame used for a group in the final presentation is removing said frame only when the presentation is ready -- and remembering to put it back for last-minute edits and then removing it again.

While I appreciate the efforts by the team to provide these solutions, I am not yet ready to adopt Prezi as my main presentation tool because the workarounds are still more time-consuming than editing on Powerpoint.

I remain hopeful that the actual persistent grouping feature will be prioritized in future releases. I fully subscribe to jaapvr's reasoning (posted over a year ago):
"I'm sure you get lots of feature requests, and have some of your own too. But this one deserves some attention for three reasons:
A) it's been around for more than a year (longer than most)
B) been called 'essential' by far more people than all other feature requests, and
C) has led people to explicitly declare to use prezi less or not at all (unique for this feature)".

Cheers to all!

Well, what do you know? Grouping has now been implemented! http://gsfn.us/t/2ypaz

I'm trying to animate a group. Once I group items and click away, the zebra disappears, naturally. But when I click on one of the grouped items, the zebra doesn't come back. And, when I right-click to select "animate," the frame to which the item belongs comes into focus instead of the group. So, how do I animate the group?

Is it possible to group items in the path? It would be a lot easier to change your path if it is possible to select multiple "sldies" within the path.
Does anyone know if this is possible?

thanks
