Auto layout no longer functioning as normal?

It always worked like this. Press Shift + A to wrap them in AL.

It has not “always worked like this.” I’ve been using Figma every day for the last 3 years, and I’ve always been able to accomplish what I illustrated in this video.

You can if selection contains something other than auto layout layers. If selection is only AL layers, you can’t do it the way you are showing.

I’m having all kinds of problems with auto layout today. I can’t even figure out what is happening wrong because I’ve never had these issues before and I’ve been using autolayout in this file for months (and months and months before that). There is definitely some kind of bug happening with autolayout right now.

Looks like it was reverted back to the way it used to be. I am now able to [again] add auto layout to auto layout frames as illustrated in the video.

right? mine actually seems to be working again today, but it was bugging out for the last week or so on me. Not sure what’s going on.

Is Auto Layout working? I don’t know what’s going on but it’s getting me nuts. It doesn’t aligned correctly and the W is mixed up with H… What’s going on?

Did you manually rotate the frame?

Noup, I havent touched the position of frame. 😦

In this case you need to share more information than just a generic complaint. In what way exactly is it broken for you? A file link or at least a screenshot would be great.

4. When I add a new element, everything moves to the top, instead of keeping the alignment I settled previously. In this example (image) everything supposed to be aligned to the top-right, so when I add a new element, the rest of the elements should move down, not up… Loos at the red line in image 1 I added to identify the initial position of the frame.

I hope I explained myself better.
Thanks for your help @Gleb !

Yes you are right sorry. I’ve been too frustrated with it.
Here are the problems I’m experiencing:

1. The properties from the frames are not working for me. For example, I apply the auto layout to a frame, and I set the W and H as “Hug”, but when I add another element, the frame doesn’t hug the elements and doesn’t grow.
2. I set the alignment on the auto layout to the top-right, but in the frame, it is aligned to the top-left. Here is an image:

As I suspected, the frame is rotated (flipped upside down).

😱 Ok, now I’m clueless on how that happened. But I’m happy you found it! Thanks again for your help! 🙃
