Copy–Paste Positions Layers Incorrectly Outside Frames

Share an issue

Hi, after the latest Sketch update I noticed an issue when copying and pasting layers between frames.

When I copy an element from one frame and paste it into another frame, the layer gets pasted outside the target frame at completely incorrect X and Y coordinates (usually very far from the frame).It doesn’t paste inside the frame as expected.

This happens regardless of the layer type, and the pasted element keeps its global position instead of adopting the position relative to the new frame.

Could you please check if this is a bug or if there’s a new setting affecting the paste behavior? Thanks!

Hello Marcello, thanks for reporting!

We’re aware of some issues related to pasting positions, but I’ve not been able to reproduce the issue you’re describing. Could you be more specific on the steps and, if possible, show a short screen recording showing it in its context? We would like to reproduce it on our end.
