MS Office Forum / General PowerPoint Questions / June 2007How to move an object within a group of objects
I have a group of objects which I have assigned a custom action, and I want to work on one of them without un-grouping so not to loose the custom action and reconstruct it again, what can I do? Shady, Don't think there is a built in way for PPT. You can adjust the fill, border of a grouped object but, move an object as you seem to suggest in your subject without ungrouping, don't think so. Nevertheless there is an add-in that would allow you to do what you want: http://skp.mvps.org/ac/index.html I believe you can copy the animation, ungroup, adjust and then reapply the animation.

Look at ProTools at http://officeone.mvps.org/protools/protools.html - it allows you to move and rotate shapes within a group through its Shape Properties toolbar - http://officeone.mvps.org/protools/protools_shape_properties.html - Chirag PowerShow - View multiple PowerPoint slide shows simultaneously http://officeone.mvps.org/powershow/powershow.html >I have a group of objects which I have assigned a custom action, and I want > to work on one of them without un-grouping so not to loose the custom > action > and reconstruct it again, what can I do?

You've received some good workaround suggestions. I just wanted to add that you can move (and otherwise work with) objects within a group of objects in PPT 2007. You can't do this in previous versions.
