I've assigned two different hand shaped to a wrist bone and they stay connected to the bone no problem until I switch group them, then the hand shapes won't move with the wrist bone. I took a look at the StartupFile that comes with Anime Studio Pro but it looks the same as the way I have it. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

If you put the hand shapes into a new switch layer inside the main bone layer you need to bind the switch layer to the wrist bone.
Select the switch layer, then select the bind layer tool and click on the wrist bone.

Correct. the BIND LAYER TO BONE button is what you're looking for. That will BIND the switch layer to the bone's position.
Select the SWITCH LAYER. Click on the BIND LAYER TO BONE button. Click on the BONE you want to bind the switch layer to.
That's it.
