Yes,..........you have to select both objects in order to group them. Youcan do this by holding down the "Control" key and selecting the first object from the drop down list, then hold down  the "Shift" +  "Control"  keys and select the second object in the same manner. You can then group the selected objects in whatever manner in best for you. Hope this helps.
