Freeway Reference: Working with Items

How grouping works

When a series of items is grouped in Freeway, a new parent item is

created that contains those items. The selected items become children of

the parent item.

You can also create a group by drawing new items within the boundary

of a larger item. Child items drawn like this are constrained to the parent

item’s boundary: you can move children around within the parent, but

they cannot be dragged outside their parent unless you press the space bar

(which causes the item to be moved into a different parent), or hold down

the Command key (which allows layer items to be positioned outside

their parent).

Another way to create a group is to drag items in the Site panel:

1. Click on the

button at the bottom of the Site panel and choose

Show Items.

2. The Site panel will show a hierarchical list of the items on

each page.

3. In the Site panel, select the item you wish to make into a child.

4. Drag the item up and to the right, so that the item you wish

to become the target parent becomes highlighted.

5. When you release the mouse, the item becomes a child of the

parent.

A special crosshair cursor

indicates that the item

being drawn will become

a child of the outer box.

Note that the parent box

has a thicker highlight

border. This acts as

another visual clue that a

child item is being drawn.

Power Tip: Clicking an item in the Site panel will highlight

it in the page layout as if you have selected it with the mouse

normally. This can be useful when you are trying to select an item

hidden several layers down in your layout.

Power Tip: Dragging items in the Site panel is a useful

technique to ungroup an item. Drag the item you want to ungroup

down and to the left in the

Site panel so it is no longer nested

with its parent.

Note 1: If the dragged item is outside the original parent boundary, the

parent may stretch to encompass the new child, or the child may be moved

within the parent’s boundary. This can be a little unpredictable, so it may

be better to drag the ﬁrst item over the second in the page layout, then drag

it in the

Site panel to create the group.

Note 2: Grouping items is an essential part of using the Rollover Action to

avoid showing a blue outline on rollover images with a link applied when

viewed in Safari. To prevent this happening, you must select all items which

make up the rollover, group them and then apply the Rollover Action to the

group item.
