FigJam: Keep order of layers as they are when copying and pasting

I’ve noticed that when I copy and paste a combination of ungrouped objects, they are pasted in the order that I clicked each object before pressing Ctrl+C, rather than in the order that they were. This is super frustrating - and doesn’t make any sense to me.

Not sure if this is super clear so just an example:
If a star was on top of a circle, but I clicked the circle and then the star (in that order) before typing Ctrl+C, when I paste, it would put the circle on top of the star, even if the objects were not in that order originally…

    Same issue! It’s driving me nuts. I’m a new Figma user, so I figure its something simple I’m just not wrapping my head around, but its driving me nuts.

    My workaround for the moment is to group those items together, and than do my copy + paste.
