Cut & Paste Into doesn't respect collision settings

Description:
If an object is is currently embedded inside another objects, and you need to cut and paste, it doesn’t respect your collision settings.

Where does this happen:
3D View in Roblox Studio

Steps to Repro (with attached file):

  • Make sure collisions are off in the RibbonBar > Model
  • Cut the Seat (notice the location of the Seat object)
  • Paste the Seat into the Chair Model
  • Observe where it’s new location is

Current Behavior:

  • Seat is now sitting on top of the chair arms

Expected Behavior:

  • Seat preserves its location and respects the collision setting

Also experiencing this, it is impossible to preserve position when pasting models.

My current workflow is to copy and paste into Server storage using “paste into”, then move the instance back into workspace. I do this frequently. This is cumbersome.

Paste should respect collision settings. This correction does not break workflows.

Hi there, thanks for filing this bug report. Unfortunately, fixing it isn’t currently on the roadmap so we can’t prioritize a fix at this time.
