Symbols appearing upside down when dragged onto stage

Hello! For some reason when I drag symbols from the library to the stage, they automatically appear upside down/reversed. Why is this? Thanks!

    i'm with @JoãoCésar17023019 on this one.  i've never heard of anyone reporting that.

     

    when you select in the library, does the library window show a different orientation from the stage?

     

    if yes, does the stage have default setting?

    No, in the library window it shows upside down too.

    Hi.

     

    Can you provide some screenshots of even a video showing the issue?

    Because it is possible that in your symbol definition the visuals are upside down but you weren't aware or that you're adding the instances to a container that is flipped on the y axis.

     

    Please let us know.
