Has anyone experienced a weird bug where the autolayout align commands appear backwards to the expected result? I.e when I try to left align an autolayout it right aligns it instead. Also having issues with prototype previews within the same file. Wondering if it is a corrupt file or if others are having similar issues.

Backwards Autolayout and issues with prototypes

@Elizabeth9 are you sure that the Rotation value is set to 0? It’s easy to recreate your scenario when the auto layout has a mirrored rotation set to it? You can still place objects in with the correct orientation, even when a parent is rotated.

They are not. It happens even when creating a net-new autolayout within this file.
Could you share a link to this file?
Unfortunately it is for work and the file contains sensitive info that can’t be shared.

You are correct. This was causing the issue with the prototype preview as well. Thank you!
I have the same issue but none of the parents are rotated 🤨
It seems to happen randomly and only in the past few weeks.
Probably it’s not rotated, but flipped
It happens to new autolayouts I create and I cant imagine I am unknowingly flipping them all the time all of a sudden. Any idea how that might be happening?
