10% of layers incorrectly positioned in After Effects #47

Some of the imported layers (10%) are incorrectly positioned in After Effects.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Select the layers in Sketch 70
  2. detach symbols
  3. Click "Send sellection to Ae"

I expected that all layers keep the original position from Sketch. But some of them didn't. They appear in the left upper corner. Strange. Why?

Are you selecting shapes that are inside of groups? Sketch uses a relative positioning when inside of groups so the outer group has a position, but the inner shape is seen as being at 0,0. This is a bit of a Sketch quirk and means you either need to ungroup or select the outer group and transfer.

Any luck with that?

Thanks for the explanation. Yes, just got to expand / ungroup stuff in sketch. Everything works. Thanks for this amazing plugin, your time and your contribution to the community, great stuff!
