annotations in script

[dprawel]

Sometimes I want to draw brackets or a box or some other annotation on/around
script I've written on a page. When I move the script, the annotations don't
move with it. For example, I may insert space above on the page. I can't
find a "group" feature, like in Powerpoint, so I selected the annotation and
the associated script and told ON to treat them as a drawing. They still move
separately. Any ideas of how to tie them together?

ON does not have grouping/anchoring features.
Although it has been asked for that countless times, it will not be
available in the new version either. {siiigh}

A workaround would be to use the "lasso" feature for marking everything
and then moving the marked areas.
Zooming in will be of help in so far as this makes it easier to catch
bigger areas.

1. No grouping (BTW: the definitely most asked for feature in ON)

2. Use menu: Insert -> Extra Writing Space
Click and Drag
