Housing Editor - anyway to lock items together?

Annuliel

I was wondering if there was any way to lock items together via the housing editor?

Having recently built items for my house I would like to lock the items used to build them together, so that I can move them around to that perfect spot without having to take it apart and rebuild it.

I was wondering if this is something that can be done, as I have failed to find anything so far, or if it is something that ZOS would maybe consider for the future.

Thank you :)

    You should:

    press F5
    Select first Object with "E"
    Press "G" for group selections
    Select n objects with "E"

    Select "R" for confirm Group aggregation.

    Next time you select one of those object with "E" you select all the group.

    Simple no? :)

    ......

    Too bad it has not been implemented yet :lol:

    @ZOS_GinaBruno pls :wink:

    This was requested while housing was being tested but for whatever reason wasn't added.

    Hopefully it will be added in future as I agree it would be really helpful to be able to do.

    Oh, I really hope they do this. I spent ages getting things nice on a desk one day, a bowl with carefully placed fruits in it and varying stacks of papers. But then I got crafting stations and wanted to move some things around.... took me forever to get everything looking decent again. Would have been great if I could have just moved the desk and taken everything on it.

    I would also like a feature to lock items after placed (a keybind to lock/unlock while targeted or something). I have accidentally grabbed a banner a couple of times and it was really annoying since it took me awhile to get it placed just right.

    I think a grouping option would be great and relieve a lot of headaches. I would also love to see a "locking" option as Annalyse suggested - I accidentally clicked on one of the "paving" stones in the yard at Autumn Gate and it's really a block sunk into the ground. Now I can't get it sunk back into the ground again and my path is ruined...lol

    In real life, I can put a lamp on a table and move the two items together.

    In Homestead, I can't. And I feel like it should be possible.
