Using Groups in Figma: Structuring and Nesting Objects Efficiently

• Groups are treated as single entities, making it easier to move or organize multiple objects together;
• The group is labeled as "Group" in the design panel, and you can rename it for clarity;
• Groups follow the same stacking order as individual layers;
• You can rearrange groups or objects within a group by dragging them in the layers panel;
• Groups can be nested (a group within another group) simply by drag a group into another group to nest it;
• Nested groups maintain stacking order, where objects in higher layers appear on top;
• Frames can be nested similarly to groups (a frame within another frame).

Make sure to:

• Use groups to keep designs organized and easy to manage;

• Lock individual groups or objects if you don't want them accidentally moved or edited;

• Rename groups to help in quickly identifying them in complex designs;

• To group, select multiple objects, right click and select "Group Selection", or alternatively, press Ctrl/Command + G;

• To ungroup, right-click and select "Ungroup" or press Ctrl/Command + Backspace (Figma default). Ctrl/Command + Shift + G (Adobe default) also works.
