I would like to group visuals, textboxes and shapes to create custom features and presentations in the reports.

RE: group objects

Surprised this is not an option seems pretty straight forward and basic!

RE: group objects

It is pretty ridiculous that this is not a basic option of this tool. Or that it has been mentioned on these forums for just under 2 years with no updates.

RE: group objects

This is one of the most important features that should have been there from day one.

RE: group objects

You can multi-select objects by using the selection pain and ctrl+click, but grouping would be good. We have bookmark grouping which is great, but now I have a report page that will likely have 90 objects on it by the time I'm done thanks to hide/show and the magic of bookmarks. Would really love to organize with groups in the selection pane, and perhaps this could be lumped in with the ability to select and move visual groupings on the page (kill 2 birds).

Alternatively, the option to toggle on/off "Show hidden objects" so they don't have to appear in the Selection Pane would also make it more manageable in my opinion.
