Reply To: Grouping objects to anchor them – but they already have Object Styles

Make a new object style that has all of the little checkboxes with a “-” in them in both the “basic attributes” and “effects for” parts of the window, with the exception of the anchored object instructions.

Next, group your objects together and apply the anchor style as you were trying to do before, and the appearance will stay the same, but will now obey the anchored instruction rule.

The bad news is that if you change an object style, items that were grouped in this fashion will no longer obey their old style rules and maintain their present appearance.

Wish i’d known this trick earlier though, I could’ve saved myself hours on a recent project!
