Beginners' Questions Object changes size/position when adding to a group.

    Sometimes, when I make a new object, and add it under an existing group, the new object will change size/position.

    I think it may be because I changed the size/position of the new groups after I made them, but am unsure.

    Is there a way to prevent the change in size/position when adding new object to a group?Β  Or reset whatever the group's internal size/position is that may be causing it?

    Please describe the process step by step.

    I will have a group of objects grouped together in inkscape.

    I will draw a new object.

    I will go over to my object list and drag the new object into the grouped objects.

    The new object will change size/position.

    I'd try ungrouping the group (all objects from the group will be selected), then shift-click to include the new object(s), then regroup.

    Or, ungroup and regroup, then drag objects into the group with the Objects dialog.
