Hello there, thank you for flagging this! I understand that you may find this situation a bit unusual.
I tried on my end but couldn’t replicate the issue. When I selected both objects, one inside a frame and the other outside the frame, and then pressed the shortcuts below, it seemed to be working as usual:
- ⇧ + A: Added auto layout to the selected objects.
- ⌥ + A: Aligned left. Align the right object to the left object.
Would you mind sharing a quick video recording or screenshots of the issue you are experiencing? It would be helpful to have the full Figma screen visible, including the left and right panels to show the properties and layers panels, as well as expanding the relevant layers. This will enable us to better visualize the issue and see if we can reproduce the same behavior.
Additionally, is this occurring in the browser, desktop app, or both? As a basic step, could you please clear the cache in both your desktop apps and browsers and check if there are any improvements?
For desktop apps:
- Mac: In the Help menu under Troubleshooting.
- Windows: Under the toggle arrow at the right of the top toolbar under Help > Troubleshooting.
