Cannot group picture after having used photo album

[mabi2911]

Hi there
I have inserted 10 Photos onto 10 different slided using the option "Photo album"

For I wanted to comment on them I have inserted text boxes.
Now I would like to group the picture (ohoto) and the text box which is not possible for the command "group" is not highlighted.


But I need to group the items because I would like to save them as a picture.

When I do it step by step for each and every photo which means 10 times the same procedure I can do it easily. But this is not my goal because I actually would like to insert 80 photos.
Does anybody know why I cannot group after having used
insert photo album?
Thanks in advance for any support
cheers
Mabi

When you make a photo album the pictures are marked in the XML so they cannot be rotated or grouped. (Why, who knows?)

If you are able to use a macro see this page WORK ON A COPY!
