    Currently you can merge two groups of items on the canvas, but you can't add/remove items that aren't already grouped from a current group.

    If I group say 10 items, and later want to add another single item, I currently have to ungroup, then regroup. I would like to select an item and the group I want it in, and click "Add to Group".

    Hey, turns out you can do this by dragging things into/out of groups in the Selection pane. I had *no* idea you could do that...and I haven't seen/noticed this in any documentation. Maybe Microsoft can ensure this gets a mention in their articles/videos.

    I'm leaving this idea here for now in case someone else goes to ask the same question.

    Thanks to Solomon Roberts to pointing this out via Twitter. https://twitter.com/iamrobi24/status/1221700779330826245
