Drag and Drop in Automations

Hi Guy’s, this has been bugging me for months now. When in an automation or script and I want to reorganise things within them by using Drag and Drop feature, when I grab the item I want to move then let it go it sometimes deletes itself, I then have to exit the automation or script without save, then re-enter automation or script to access the deleted item. Any help much appreciated

Hi Mark, have you tried to do the same with another browser?

It can get visually complicated when drag/dropping automation items.

I don’t know if things have disappeared on me, or at times I just lost where a dropped item actually landed. But I greatly appreciate the Copy and Duplicate context menu options, to help avoid that sort of frustration. And it stops the “keep repeating the same thing expecting a different result” thing, for me.

FWIW

This has also happened to me.
Item definitely disappears after drop.
