Recently (~July 2024), the default behavior of how layers react to auto layout is different and very disruptive.

For example, if I have a text layer inside a frame and the text layer set to Fill, and then I press Shift-a to create a new auto layout frame around the text field, it sets the text layer and new auto layout frame to Hug.

Previously the new auto layout frame would inherit the behavior of what’s being wrapped and retain the width setting for the objects inside (text layer in this example). This allows you to then duplicate that layer and stack appropriately. But since everything gets set to Hug, it always behaves exactly how I don’t want it to!
