I am trying to drag and drop this pie icon outside of the frame onto a canvas.
I know how to prototype simple drag and drop-but have never done it where the element is surrounded by other elements like this.
Any ideas on how to get it outside of the frame on to the canvas?
Thank you!

It looks like the issue might be related to constraints or frame nesting in Figma. If the pie icon is within a frame that has clipping enabled or constraints set to keep it inside, dragging it out won’t work as expected. Try selecting the icon layer and moving it outside of the current frame in the layer panel, or temporarily disabling "Clip content" on the parent frame. Once it's outside, you can place it freely on the canvas. Also, ensure it's not grouped or auto-layout constrained in a way that restricts free movement.
