As a free online design platform, Canva is used by millions of people around the globe to create stunning designs.

One thing that Canva is great for is creating groups of items. This can be helpful if you want to create a collage or if you’re working on a design with multiple elements. In this article, we’ll show you how to group items in Canva so you can create beautiful designs with ease.

How to group items in Canva

To group items in Canva, first select the items you want to group. You can do this by clicking and dragging your mouse over the items. Once you’ve selected the items, click on the “Group” button at the top of the screen.

Your items will now be grouped together and you can move them around as one unit. To ungroup items, simply click on the “Ungroup” button at the top of the screen.

PRO TIP: If you are not careful, grouping items in the Canva app can result in lost work. Make sure to save your work often and export it to a safe location before grouping items.

Tips for grouping items in Canva

Here are some tips to keep in mind when grouping items in Canva:

  • Use groups to create collages: If you want to create a collage, grouping items together is a great way to do it. You can move the groups around until you find a layout that you like.
  • Use groups to align elements: Groups can also be helpful for aligning elements. Simply select all of the elements that you want to align and click on the “Align” button at the top of the screen. Then choose how you want to align the elements (left, center, right) and they will all move into place.
  • Nest groups: You can also nest groups inside of other groups.

    This can be helpful if you want to create complex designs with multiple elements. To nest a group inside of another group, simply select the outer group and then click on the “Nest” button at the top of the screen.

Conclusion:
Grouping items in Canva is a great way to create complex designs with ease. By following these tips, you can create beautiful designs that are sure to impress your audience.
