  1. Describe the problem your experiencing and how your idea helps solve this
    When I copy paste a Group from one frame to another (duplicated) frame, the pasted group doesnt paste in the same place it was where I copied it, it pastes at the center of the duplicated frame.

I expect it to be consistent and paste in the exact position (x, y) I copied from.

  1. Add as much context as possible (screenshots, Figma files, mockups, etc.)
    I am not allowed to upload a video because I am a new user 😕

  2. Ask questions to bring the community into the conversation
    (e.g. Does anyone else experience this? Is anyone using a plugin or workaround to help solve this?, etc.

Does anyone else experience this?

It seems the issue with this is that the layer in question wasn’t inside the frame in the Layer panel, even though it was in the Frame “spatially” on the actual design. Created a separate Layer positioned inside a frame doesnt get moved in frame on Layers panel - Share Feedback - Figma Support Forum issue
