It is often convenient to treat a collection of objects as a single object. This can be achieved by grouping objects. The result is a geometric object, which can be moved, scaled, rotated etc. as a whole. To edit its parts or to move parts of it with respect to others, however, you have to un-group the object, which decomposes it into its component objects. To un-group a group object, select it, bring up the object menu, and select the Ungroup function.
Group objects can be elements of other groups, so you can create a hierarchy of objects.
You can also add a clipping path to a group, which will restrict the drawing of the group to the area inside the clipping path.
