Here are some tips to improve your workflow in Storyline in my experience.
How to Group & Ungroup
To group items on the timeline, you can select the items you would like to group together.
A shortcut is to right-click and press control on the Timeline.
Then you would press CRTL + G
If you would like to ungroup the items, you would do the following steps:
Press Ctrl+Shift+G.
Go to the Home tab, click Arrange, and choose Ungroup.
Go to the Format tab, click the Group drop-down, and choose Ungroup.
Right-click the grouped object, scroll to Group, and choose Ungroup.
