## GroupShape class

Represents a group of shapes in a document.
To learn more, visit the [How to Add Group Shape into a Word Document](https://docs.aspose.com/words/nodejs-net/how-to-add-group-shape-into-a-word-document/) documentation article.




### Remarks

A [GroupShape](./) is a composite node and can have [Shape](../shape/) and
[GroupShape](./) nodes as children.

Each [GroupShape](./) defines a new coordinate system for its child shapes.
The coordinate system is defined using the Aspose.Words.Drawing.ShapeBase.CoordSize and 
Aspose.Words.Drawing.ShapeBase.CoordOrigin properties.




**Inheritance:** [GroupShape](./) → [ShapeBase](../shapebase/) → [CompositeNode](../../aspose.words/compositenode/) → [Node](../../aspose.words/node/)
