Not sure what advantage grouping has over just getting the right click menu to work on all currently selected items. Ability to define separate groups of diagram elements so that they can be easily moved/transformed without having to select them manually each time (very handy with complex diagrams). All serious drawing programs (both simply graphic ones like Corel and those with additional logic like Visio) have some grouping functionality, and usually support hierarchical groups (i.e. groups that include other groups and single objects). The question here would be how elements with a maximal size shoudl get handled. For Example the "branch/merge" object of an activity diagram has a maximum size. So it won't easily be possible to apply scaling to every member of an object group. |
