Note
Grouping content that is on different grid planes will not allow you to move
the content as a single unit.
Releasing content from perspective
There will be times when you want to use objects that are currently in perspective elsewhere
or you want to detach an object from a grid plane. Illustrator allows you to release an object
from the associated perspective plane, but it still appears to be in perspective (its
appearance doesn't change).
The ad needs a smaller version of the larger box near the bottom of the ad. You will copy
and paste the perspective content and then release it with perspective.
1.
With the Perspective Selection tool ( ) selected, drag across the shorter box content
to select it.
2.
Choose Edit > Copy, and then choose Edit > Paste.
3.
Choose Object > Perspective > Release With Perspective.
Note
The pointer you see may not match the figure, and that's okay. The pointer
will look different, depending on which face you selected last on the taller
box.
4.
Choose Object > Group, to group it all together.
