Object grouping

[Eddy Lambert May]

I would like the option to group objects on the whiteboard together for easy editing.
An example is rescaling of multiple objects (rectangles) at once when building a template for a PI planning board. In the current iteration, objects have to be scaled individually, which becomes very time consuming and prone for errors once the complexity of the layout increases.

Hi Eddy, thank you for the feedback. I've tracked this with our internal tool and will pass it to our PM.

Hi @Scott Le
Not sure which I was most, flabbergasted or gobsmacked, to see that grouping is not already a thing in Whiteboards. I checked the JAC, but couldn't find any FR for it either. Should I raise one? :)

Hi @Scott Le Any updates you can share on this request? Thank you!

Bumping this request - we need to be able to group objects. Another use case for this is so we can attach a stamp to an object.

In my experience, stamps do stick to objects - most of the time... 😅

This is very important.  All of the other drawing tools which compete with confluence have the ability to group objects.  This is necessary to have a consistent look to a diagram, and also necessary for maintenance of designs.

I am just now familiarizing myself with Confluence whiteboards with a mission of finding the differences between it and Miro.  Not having the voting option and not have the grouping option are the first major differences.  The lack of a grouping option surprises me, it is included in most all design softwares and whiteboards I have ever used.

Yes please, bumping this again, whiteboard is a good tool if you already have confluence and don't want to try and jump onto Miro, but it needs this capability.
