Selecting Objects Within Groups; Stacking Objects - MACROMEDIA FIREWORKS 8-USING FIREWORKS Use Manual

Selecting objects within groups

To work with individual objects within a group, you can either ungroup the objects or use the
Subselection tool to select individual objects while leaving the group intact.
Subselection tool
Modifying the attributes of a subselected object changes only the subselected object, not the
entire group. Moving a subselected object to another layer removes the object from the group.
Subselecting an object within a group
To select an object that is part of a group:
Select the Subselection tool and click the object or drag a selection area around it. To add
objects to or remove them from the selection, hold down Shift as you click or drag.
To select the group that contains a subselected object, do one of the following:
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) anywhere in the group and select
Select > Superselect from the context menu.
Select Select > Superselect.
To select all objects within a selected group, do one of the following:
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) anywhere on the group and select
Select > Subselect from the context menu.
Select Select > Subselect.

Stacking objects

Within a layer, Fireworks stacks objects based on the order in which they were created, placing
the most recently created object on the top of the stack. The stacking order of objects
determines how they appear when they overlap.
