Glue objects

[sampits]

Hello, i´m doing a project where i create a frame of a table with different objects(cuboids)as seen in the image:https://gyazo.com/9d6b4e8d793ea978406097eeab3193a4

Now after i create this frame i want to pick it up all togheter but obviously they are all diferent objects so i can´t do that.

Is there a way for me to link/glue then so when i pick on the center everything come togheter?

Shapes can be grouped:

Two or more simple shapes or compound shapes can however be grouped ([Menu bar --> Edit --> Grouping/Merging --> Group selected shapes]) or ungrouped ([Menu bar --> Edit --> Grouping/Merging --> Ungroup selected shapes]).

I only create the shapes after the simulation starts, is there a way to group the objects mid simulation without my interferance( some kind of function that groups object)?

Yes: sim.groupShapes

otherwise you can always attach them together via:

• simple parent-child relationship if the shapes are not dynamically enabled. You can then manipulate all shapes together by manipulating the parent of them
• via force/torque sensors if shapes are dynamically enabled
