This tool is useful for moving several objects simultaneously.

Click the Parent tool on the Modify or Animation tab.

Tip

If you do not want the children objects to be transformed when you set the parent object, you must turn on the Keep position when parenting checkbox on the Transform tab of the parameter editor.
Select one or more objects as the child/children object(s) and press Enter to verify your selection.
Click the object you would like to designate as the parent and press Enter to assign the value.

You can also do this by connecting nodes in the network editor.
