Framing Question

Sometimes, you might discover that a layer, which appears to be inside a frame, is actually outside of it—placed directly on the canvas. It just happens to share the same x and y coordinates as the frame. When you move the frame, some layers suddenly lose their positions because they weren’t part of the frame. This can be quite frustrating.

Usually, when I encounter an orphan layer like this, I have to find it in the layer list and drag the item into the frame list item. Alternatively, I drag the layer outside the frame and then back again to its original position. This is also an annoying process.

However, I’ve noticed that when I drag a layer that isn’t part of the frame, the frame underneath sometimes highlights with a blue line, suggesting there’s a way to add the layer to the frame directly.

So, is there a shortcut or similar method to add a layer that is atop a frame to the frame easily?
