Entrance of objects off slide and fluid boxes

I have been using Captivate 9 and to create a more interactive interface I have applied a motion effect to a group of objects acting as a panel of interactive buttons and user information.  My question is, how can fluid boxes be used in a similar way if I decided to make this type of project responsive? Can you have fluid boxes off the slide in the work area and enter with an action?

    If they are unlocked, you lose the functionality of the fluid box. You can make the fluid box static as well, but again you will lose fucntionality. If I cannot cope with the limitations of the fluid boxes, I prefer using the Breakpoint views..

    You could unlock the objects from the fluid box and then group them together.

    Fluid boxes are linked to the slide, they cannot have effects applied to them. The objects IN the fluid boxes can have effects like entrance. However, it is not possible to group objects in a fluid box, you'll have to apply the effect to each item of the group.
