Hi. When will you have a download to PowerPoint feature? To me, that's more important.

Sofie Jarvis

Hello everyone!
We just released groups to everyone. Now, instead of moving and aligning multiple blocks one by one, you can group them. Select blocks like text and an image, right-click and click Group
. Then, move, align, distribute, duplicate, and copy-paste groups as you like.
Want to move even faster? Use a Command
 + G
 (or Control
 + G
 on Windows) to group blocks and Command
 + Shift
 + G
 (or Control
 + Shift
 + G
 on Windows) to ungroup blocks.
Learn more about groups in this article. If you have any feedback on how groups work, please let us know using the in-app messenger or by emailing [support@pitch.com](mailto:support@pitch.com)
.

Sofie Jarvis: This is great! Yet I'm still missing the functionality of scaling grouped objects. Any plans to make that possible?

Create feature to group elements such as text, shapes and images

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: Can you add me to the beta please?

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

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.
