There are two ways that you can select multiple design elements. First is by clicking your mouse and dragging your cursor over the elements you want to group. This works well when the elements are all near or close to each other.
The other way is by holding down the shift key and clicking on each element you want to group. This works well if the elements are placed in different areas or are far from each other.
Either way, all the elements you selected will be inside either a solid blue line or a dotted blue line. In the image below you can see the solid and dotted lines.
Once everything is selected, there are two ways you can group elements. You can either use the keyboard shortcut: press ctrl/command + g or click the 3 dots on the toolbar > Group to group your selected elements.
When elements are grouped together, all elements will be inside one single box with a solid blue line and you can resize them or move the selection to different parts of the canvas without messing up your design.
Do take note that you won't be able to edit any of the elements individually until you ungroup them. To ungroup elements, with your grouped item selected, you will see that your available option on the toolbar will be "ungroup". Click on this option to ungroup your elements so they become individual elements.
