Hi there,

I'd like to create a group of svg objects, because moving every single object is a way to hard (once I'll have around 100 svg objects). Is there an easy way to do that?

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex026/uploads/nodered/original/3X/d/e/dee1ef8b69a91d7af13f4089e050acbce3642f94.png)

Is it possible to move all objects of a group?

Best regards and thanks for any help

Yes, use transform:translate

> **[transform - SVG: Scalable Vector Graphics | MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Attribute/transform#translate)**
>
> The transform attribute defines a list of transform definitions that are applied to an element and the element's children.

Heading changed to reflect this is something for Dashboard (since there are also other ways to work with SVG images in Node-RED).

Also removed function node tag as unnecessary.
