I made a button with an arrow on it. I'm trying to group the button and arrow so that i can move it onto my model. How do i group all the button and arrow objects.

Workspace: Hold Control key and select all objects you want grouped.
Click 'Encapsulate in 3D' icon.

Model: Hold Control key and select all objects you want grouped.
Click either 'Glue As Sibling' or 'Glue As Child' icon

And on the workspace side, the equivalent is the "Encapsulate In 3D" tool - same process, select all your objects first, then click the tool.


HTH!

The equivalent to unglue (along with a slew of other handy functions) can be achieved with this. (http://forums1.caligari.com/truespace/showpost.php?p=35795&postcount=11)
