Hi all,

I've noticed when copy and pasting objects in a coordinate container configured as 'percentage', the objects come in with a position of 0,0 and height/width of 0,0.

The position is fine, but the height and width being 0 doesn't seem right. Anyone else experiencing this feature? 🙂

Thanks!  
Alex

What version?

I haven't noticed this. Does this happen on all views? Have you tried creating a new view to see if the same behavior exists?
