Add Special Object
Insert Container
When there are 2 or more shapes on the canvas and you want to move them together, drag these shapes onto the container, and move this container.
To insert a container on the canvas, go to Insert > Container, or find the container symbols on the symbol library (General > Container), choose one that you like.

Now, when you put shapes into the container, the border will turn green to make you know what is going on.
