I’m importing STEP files for a grand piano that has many complex shapes. Is there a way to select all and group them so that all shapes can be selected moved and scaled as one single unit?

If you select the Move / Rotate / Scale tool in the Transform Tools menu, an Info Bubble appears at the top of the screen. If you tap on the text “groups”, you can select the groups you wish to use and move all of the bodies in those groups as one unit.
