Default Grouping objects

Hello Everybody,

how do i group objects in AC3D ?
there are several objects in my model so i want to group them to make things easier.
also how can i name a group ?
can a single texture be applied to the whole group by selecting it instead of selecting individual objects.

will be thankful if anyone can help.

thanks.

You can group/ungroup objects with "Edit -> Group" and "Edit -> Ungroup" commands. You can name the selected group with the "Tools -> Object property editor" (F9). All of these commands work in Group mode. Also, once you've selected a Group, you can texture it like you would an object; the texture gets applied to all objects in the group at once.

I strongly recommend taking a few moments and reading the AC3D manual, as all of these answers are in there, with other very useful info as well.

Thank you very much Dennis.
I came across a few tutorials on the net and learnt AC3D going through them.
Some how I didnt come across any tutorial where grouping is explained.

Will certainly go through the manual.

Thank you.
