Storyline Unresponsive with Motion Paths

I'm creating a relatively simple carousel using this as a guide: Create an image carousel in Articulate Storyline

I've created some images with text boxes and put them into, groups as my image items, then one master group. When I apply a motion path to the master group, my computer becomes nearly unresponsive as I try to drag the motion path into position. I'm using a Dell Precision 3571 on Windows 11. The CPU is a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-12800H with 64 GB of RAM. 

I have Storyline assigned to the Nvidia T600 GPU. (4GB dedicated memory).

I really can't move the assets into the correct location unless performance is improved - it's too finicky and not responsive enough. Does anyone have any suggestions?
