Copy properties does not work as it did before
Before if i copied properties from one auto layout to another it copied everything, but if i paste properties onto a square or any other shape and then copied properties of that square - all info about the paddings would have been erased. It was easier this way to just copy the fill color, stroke and corner radius styles to a different looking auto layout
Now even if you copy properties from a shape it still keeps the paddings and gap size

    It’s affecting text copy-properties as well.

    Hi, ​@NotOver Yet 👋 If this is still happening, I’m happy to take a look.

    Hey ​@Ruwan Fernando I’m not 100% sure if this a net new issue or something related. A few questions to help us narrow it down:

    • When you say "affecting text copy-properties" — does pasting result in no visible change at all, or does it apply properties incorrectly/unexpectedly?
    • How many text styles exist on the layer you copied from — one, or more than one?
    • Are you copying between two text layers, or copying from a shape/auto-layout frame onto a text layer (mirroring OP's cross-type scenario)?
