I have two same objects in my layers in Figma, one of them is marked as absolutely positioned, the other one is not. However, looking at the top right panel there is no indication that either of them have absolute positioning applied. Why?

Hey Danijel, can you confirm that when you click on a specific element with an absolute position, this is not applied?

If you select these two elements as shown in your screenshot (one has the absolute position and the other doesn’t), the absolute position is not highlighted in the right panel but it is still applied (as shown in your left panel). It will only be highlighted in the right panel if both elements have an absolute position.

If it’s not the case, does this happen in your specific file or in any file?
I’d also recommend you to reach out directly to the support team with the link of the affected file, so they can try to reproduce it and investigate: here
Be also sure to use your Figma account email, include a link to the file, and share it with support-share@figma.com as an Editor, thank you!
