Cmd+V no longer pasting in place

Community Beginner ,
Sep 13, 2024 Sep 13, 2024

Putting this down as a bug, assuming it is a bug? Express used to always paste in place when copying over an element/elements from one 'slide' to another, but I have recently noticed it now is a bit off... Anyone else had this problem/knoow of a fix? It is really annoying!

As @Sonya_Laing3409 noted, this should be fixed now. Please let us know if you continue to see issues with copy/pasting across pages/slides.

 

Thanks

I am, and it's a HUGE issue! I am hoping it's just a bug too. Program for what i use it for is unusable without this feature!

I figured out a fix, but it's rediculous. If you have two scenes, and u want to copy text from one to the other in place you have to:

1. Copy text from first scene

2. Paste into next scene (it will not line up correctly)

3. Go back to first scene and paste into this scene (it will now line up)

4. Go back to second scene and paste again (it will now be in place)

 

Of course. you will have to delete all the extras you paste din that were not in place.

Ugh, hope they adress this soon!

Have you tried using the other suggested browsers (Safari, Microsoft Edge, and Google Chrome) to see if it makes a difference? Try clearing the browser's cache and cookies and see if that makes any difference.

@Dizajn30317121gdhe @Fny74 

are you seeing this behavior when pasting across pages/slides or on the same page? When pasting on the same page, we deliberately offset the paste item.

 

Thanks

@Fny74 

 

Thanks for your reponsem, but I am unable to replicate the issue you are observing. Is the page you are copying to the same size as the original page?
Also, does it happen for all items and types of items (images, icons, text, groups) or specific ones?

 

Thanks
