I created a Group within Captivate 8 and added a Properties name to it for Advanced Actions. However, I wanted to add some graphic to that Group. Am I able to add a Graphic to a Group and not lose the Properties name?
Thanks

I use the timeline in that case to select both the group and the objects you want to add to the group, then use CTRL-G (or right-click option Group) again. Pretty simple!

I should have explained myself more clearly. My apology. I left the most important part of the question out.
I understand that I can group and ungroup very easily by right click. What I should have asked was, can I keep the advanced action properties to that group once I ungroup it?

That is not what you asked at all. A group has no advanced actions properties at all. I understood that you used that group as a parameter for an advanced action, and you wanted to keep the name of the group but had to add an object. That is what I answered: you don't UNGROUP at all, but you select both the group and the objects to be added. Then you choose CTRL-G and the objects will be added to the group, without changing its name.
If you explain what else you mean by 'keep the advanced action properties....'? I never told to ungroup at all in my answer AFAIK. If you ungroup the name is lost, and the advanced action will no longer know which 'object' - in this case a group - you are talking about.
Is your subject wrong as well? 'Can I add to Groups in Captivate 8'? If that is the case, please change that Subject. My answer was to that subject, which seems now not to be correct?
