Layer, group and lock objects in Pages on iPad

You can work with and arrange the objects on a page in a number of ways:

  • Layer (or stack) objects to create the appearance of depth

  • Group objects to more easily move, resize or rotate them as a single unit

  • Lock objects to avoid inadvertently moving, modifying or deleting them

Layer objects

  1. Go to the Pages app on your iPad.

  2. Open a document with multiple objects.

  3. Drag an object so that it overlaps with one or more other objects.

  4. Tap the Format button, then tap Arrange.

  5. Tap an object, then do one of the following:

    The Move Backward button, the Move Forward button and the layering slider.
    • Drag the slider until the object is layered where you want it.

    • Tap the icons to move the selected object forwards or backwards.

You can select multiple objects to layer them all at once.

Group or ungroup objects

  1. Go to the Pages app on your iPad.

  2. Open a document with multiple objects.

  3. Touch and hold an object, then with another finger, tap the other objects you want to group.

  4. Lift your fingers, then tap Group.

    One finger holding a shape and another finger tapping a separate shape.

To ungroup objects, tap the group, then tap Ungroup.

Lock or unlock objects

When an object is locked, you can’t move, delete or modify it in any way until you unlock it.
