In tasks with [Geometry collection](docId\:B-SLhzbxrpygxQvDYTAZD), objects will be automatically grouped in the right-side menu. They do not differ from other objects in any other way.

## Switching into a geometry collection

You're able to switch into a object group if you have a group selected by using the `Alt+Tab` shortcut. This will select the first object in the group without using your mouse.

## Changing collection of an object

If an object has been created in the wrong collection and you wish to move it - you will use the 'cut' and 'paste' functionallity. Right-click on an object inside of a collection and select 'Cut'. Then you can select another collection and paste the object, either by right clicking in the object list or with `ctrl+v`.

The cut operation has no default shortcut. However, you can bind it to a custom shortcut if you are using it frequently.
