    Maybe this is possible, but I couldn't find it. Just finished watching Make a Game Like Voodoo: Part 3, and could not believe that there is not (was not?) a way to group objects. The bit about making hoops, and walls and lines for collisions, is a perfect example where one should make that collection once, create a group of it, and then just drag-n-drop the group multiple times as desired. Having to make identical items over and over again by hand is a horrible waste of time!

    As a retired programmer, this strikes me as a trivial addition to the code.

    OR... as a complete newb, did I just miss it, and not understand why each item had to be made over and over again? If I missed something, please forgive the wasted bandwidth :)

    Hmmm... well, since it's really just a giant select-all; copy; paste it seems like it should be easy to implement.

    Here's a +1 upvote for inclusion -soon-.

    Thanks.

    +1 from me.

    To be able to group several items together and manipulate them all as one object would be a great help and keep it looking tidy in the object tree
