Select and Group Widgets

You can select and manipulate multiple widgets at once in the Template Editor, making it faster and easier to build and edit complex template layouts.

Selecting Multiple Widgets

There are two ways to select multiple widgets:

Marquee Selection

Click and drag in any empty area of the template canvas (not on a widget) to draw a selection box. All widgets that the selection box touches will be selected.

📘

Hold Shift while drawing a marquee to add or remove widgets from your current selection.

Shift+Click Selection

Hold Shift and click individual widgets to add or remove them from your selection one at a time.

🚧

Locked widgets cannot be multi-selected. If a widget is locked, it will be excluded from both marquee and Shift+click selection to prevent accidental edits.

Moving Grouped Widgets

Once you have multiple widgets selected, click and drag anywhere within the group to move all selected widgets together.

• Constrain movement: Hold Shift while dragging to lock movement along the horizontal or vertical axis.

Resizing Grouped Widgets

You can resize a group of selected widgets by dragging the resize handles.

• Constrain proportions: Hold Shift while resizing to maintain the original proportions of all selected widgets.

Group Actions

Right-click on a group of selected widgets to access bulk actions:

All group actions are also available via keyboard shortcuts, which are displayed in the right-click context menu.

Undo for Group Actions

When you perform an action on a group of widgets — such as moving, resizing, or deleting — the Undo command reverts the entire group action in a single step. You do not need to undo changes for each widget individually.

Deselecting Widgets

Click on any empty area of the template canvas (without a widget) to deselect all currently selected widgets.
