In this Quick Tip, Athanasios "Noseman" Pozantzis (@nosemangr) will show you how to use the CTRL, Alt and Shift Keys, combined with Selections in the Object Manager to simplify some Hierarchical operations:
Shift: Object is inserted as a Child object of the active object. In the case of multiple selection of sub- and super-objects, only 1 object (intended for deformers) is created. This can be used, for example, to assign a deformer to each object with the same position for complex object selections.
Shift + Alt: Like Shift, except that the newly created object is subordinated to EVERY selected object.
Alt: Object is inserted as a parent object of the active object.
Alt + Ctrl/Cmd: similar to the command Group Objects, except that any object is used as the parent object instead of the null object.
Ctrl/Cmd: Object is arranged on the same hierarchy level as the active object (behind it).
Ctrl/Cmd + Shift: Object is arranged on the same hierarchy level as the active object (before it).
