Sometimes you'll need to break a group apart to work with its individual components.
You might want to ungroup when:
- You need to edit specific layers independently
- You're reorganizing your artwork structure
- You want to move certain layers to different groups
- You need to apply different effects to individual layers
- You want to delete specific components without affecting others
Ungrouping doesn't delete anything—it simply releases the layers from their container so you can work with them separately.
Ungrouping Objects
To ungroup a selected group:
- Navigate to the menu Layer -> Ungroup.
- Alternatively, use the shortcut ⇧⌘G.
