A Group Object is a Complex Object that is made up of a collection of objects. The objects that make up a group are called its components.
The components may be Simple or Complex Objects, but cannot have their own Effects. This means that any object with Effects is converted to a Sprite before it is grouped.
Both Simple Effects and Complex Effects can be applied to a Group Object itself.
Unlike a Sprite Object, a Group Object does not have its own Timeline.
Group Objects can be created by pressing Group, 
Convert to Shapes or 
Convert to Letters on the Grouping Toolbar or the Modify Menu.
You can modify the settings for a Group using the Group Panel.
