Methods: Grouping Objects for Easy Manipulation and Animation
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Select Objects
- Select multiple objects by either dragging a selection box around them or individually clicking each object.
Select Objects -
Group Objects
- Click the 'Group' button in the top-left corner of the Bizme interface to permanently group the selected objects.
Group Objects -
Manipulate Group
- After grouping, you can move, resize, and animate the entire group as a single unit.
Manipulate Group
Tips
- Grouping allows for simultaneous manipulation of multiple objects, simplifying tasks like moving, resizing, and animating.
- Apply animations to the grouped object to move or transform multiple elements simultaneously.
- Easily duplicate and move grouped objects to different slides or locations within your project.
Methods: Organizing Grouped Objects in the Objects Panel
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Organize in Objects Panel
- Locate your grouped object in the panel. You can double-click to rename the group for better organization.
- Adjust the vertical order of the grouped object within the panel to control its layering relative to other elements.

Tips
- This advanced feature helps organize your project by providing a hierarchical view of grouped objects.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
1. Incorrect Grouping Hierarchy
Reason: Objects are grouped inefficiently, leading to complex animations and difficulty selecting specific elements.
Solution: Establish a clear and logical grouping hierarchy, starting with smaller, related components and working your way up to larger groups.
2. Overuse of Keyframes
Reason: Too many keyframes make animations sluggish and difficult to manage, increasing file size and potentially causing performance issues.
Solution: Utilize easing functions and fewer keyframes to create smooth, efficient animations.
3. Ignoring Layer Order
Reason: Improper layer order can result in unexpected visual overlaps and hinder animation visibility, leading to confusion during editing.
Solution: Carefully arrange layers to ensure correct visual hierarchy and prevent unexpected occlusion.
FAQs
How do I group multiple objects together in Bizme for easier animation?
Select all the objects you want to group. In the Bizme toolbar, look for the 'Group' option (usually represented by an icon of several squares). Click it to group the selected objects. You can then animate the group as a single unit.
Can I ungroup objects after I've grouped them for animation?
Yes, absolutely! After you've finished animating your grouped objects, select the group and look for the 'Ungroup' option in the Bizme toolbar (often the same icon as the 'Group' option but with a line through it). Click it to separate the objects back into individual elements.
What's the best way to animate a large number of grouped objects efficiently without lag?
For large groups, consider optimizing your Bizme project. Reduce the complexity of individual objects within the group if possible. You may also need to explore Bizme's performance settings (check your software's documentation) to see if there are options for managing animation complexity for large scale projects.
