Resizing a figure composed several separate bits

N

Nick Argent

I'm not sure whether this is do-able:

In a presentation, I have made a diagram from individual lines, block arrows and so on. Having made my point with that diagram, I would like to shrink it down, and use it in other slides to refer to while I am presenting. I wondered if there was a command to save a bunch of lines and so on as a single object, and then re-size. Haven't found out how to do it though.

Any help will be gratefully received.

Have you tried selecting all your items and from the Draw menu select Group.
Once grouped, you should be ale to scale it to whatever size you want.
