Create a group of blocks to edit or move them in one go.

Any grouping should still be allowed to use the hyperlink/link to page feature.

Hello everyone! 
We just launched our first iteration of grouping as a closed beta. If you voted for this feature before March 15, 2022, you should now have access to grouping in your workspace. 
When you select multiple blocks, right-click, and you'll now find an option to Group or Ungroup.
If you don’t see this option in your workspace and would like to be added to this beta, please let us know using the in-app messenger or by emailing support@pitch.com.

Michael Ariel: Amazing, I thought it would never happen thanks a lot

Petter Törnqvist

Michael Ariel: Thank you! Will it be possible to scale grouped objects?

Michael Ariel

Petter Törnqvist: Please send us an email with your feedback and questions! 🙏

Max Cameron

Michael Ariel: Can you add me to the beta please?

Raphaël Marquand

Please, this is so important to be able to group elements to distribute align and make a good design

Jon Howell

PLEASE make sure to include the shortcut command CMD+G like other applications!

It's September and this feature is still not released! I am about to stop using Pitch as it seems there is more a focus on releasing glitzy new features than actually taking care of extremely basic everyday functionality like grouping blocks, spell checking etc. Things that are costing us as users a lot of time when we could easily go back to Keynote and work without this irritation. Please pay attention to the BASIC slide content creation journey!

Gerhard Diedericks: Hi Gerhard. Michael here from the Community Support team. I completely understand your frustration. We realized that we marked this feature in progress too early and have adjusted our strategy around updating feature requests going forward. We're actively working on this feature, but we're not able to share an exact ETA at the moment. That being said, we see and hear this feedback and will keep everyone posted on any major updates. If you have any additional questions about Pitch, you can email us at support@pitch.com. Thanks!

Petter Törnqvist

Gerhard Diedericks: Could not agree more. Skip the stickers and templates an focus on the basic features. grouping, colordropper, nested folders etc

Benji Greig

Great to see how quickly this is becoming a feature. Love to all the Pitch crew!

Merged in a post:

Auto-layout

Benji Greig

Similar to what both Sketch and Figma do by allowing a "Group" of elements to be stacked vertically or horizontally with a defined gap/gutter between them. Will help for laying out groups of blocks of text or boxes.

seriously.

Michael Ariel

Hi Benji Greig. Would this fall under the Group blocks feature request over here (https://pitch.canny.io/feature-requests/p/group-blocks), or would you consider this to be a different request?

Benji Greig

Michael Ariel: Yes that would be fair. It could be a feature that's a subset of grouping. But it's essentially rules on-top of the basic concept of grouping.
