Hi! I tried to create a window with 7 prims but I can't link them so it end up like one object, so I later can move it around like one object! I have tried this but failed! Select all prims and then hit the link button! I also want to save it as new object! I failed with this!
Next problem is that I don't understand how to select one face/side of the prim so I can have different textures on a prim!

Hi, you need to "attach" not not link to make all into one object and also change material name on each individual object before attaching to make it easier to change afterwards.

It is a two-step process to attach them. If you right-click (or use the modify panel) and select "attach" on any object, the cursor will change and you then click on the object you want it attached to. You can also select multiple objects, right-click, and attach them to a parent object all at once. Sorry, you cannot select individual faces of the objects.

Thanks both of you!
I tried the "attach" to as you say after I selected one prim and then selected the other prims! I created a window from 7 prims and the funny things is that I can only move it around as one object after I select the first prim or primary prim creating the window! Then I hit other part of the window, only that prim can be moved not all the window as one object! Is it not possible to have all prims linked to each other as one object and then not matter there I click get it moved around as one object?

Go to the Primary object properties and in the "Attach" section click "Merge Sub-prop" If you need to adjust individual objects after merging, you may still do it in "Edit Animation Layer".

Just to the left of the transform tool is a select tool. It's an arrow. That will let you select sub-props directly.
