Groups and Shapesheets

[JamesHall]

I have a master that I want to add another line to, when i addd the desired
line and then create an instance of the master, if I am not careful to make
sure i select the whole instance when wanting to move the shape i find i move
just the old shape and the line stays put. The only way I can think of
getting around this is to group the old shape with the new line so they both
move together. however when i do this I loose all the shapesheet information.
Is there anyway around this because I don't want to have to create all my
User defined cells and custom properties again??

Alternatively is there anyway of copying the shape sheet of the old master
and applying it to the new grouped master?

Many thanks in advance for any help!!
Cheers
James

If your existing Master is a group shape then open the group and add your
line.
If you Master shape is not a group, then convert it to one first
