The group is the same size as the window, but the content of the 
group extends beyond the group's boundaries. So when you scroll, 
you're scrolling around the (larger) contents of the group. The 
group's size - its height and width - determine the visible 
dimensions of the group, but the group can have objects that extend 
beyond its boundaries, and in this case, scrolling brings those 
objects into view.

You can experiment with this easily: create a couple of buttons in 
opposite corners of a card, group them, and turn on the group's 
scrollbars. Then resize the group so that it's small, maybe 2 inches 
by 2 inches. As you scroll around, you can make one or the other of 
the group's button's come into view.
