    Default Editing text in a soft group

    Love soft groups. One of the magical things about Xara. Often I have to edit text within a soft group. I’ve checked my manual and did a search on the TG board.
    Is it a control>click on the text. I don’t think it’s a shift click.
    Thanks

    Just press T and click on the text.

    Thanks @acorn. That does the trick and to select an object or text block within a soft group control > click.
    Soft groups are probably one of the most useful things I’ve seen over the years in Xara.

    soft groups enable grouping without changing the stacking order - that is just so important to me - if say I want to group components of textures in a cut out model and manipulate them together without changing their stack position; otherwise they would all jump to the top of the model
