I have a container object. I put another container object inside of it. I put other shapes inside these containers. Each container is magnetized.
I click the parent container to select it. I do cmd-c to copy it. I move my mouse pointer to where I want to paste it, hit cmd-v. only the parent container is pasted. nothing inside is pasted.
I searched the docs and the community forums, but found nothing on this.

Hi @kkipipeline,
Thank you for posting in the community!
To copy and paste a container along with the shapes or other containers inside it, follow these steps:
Click and drag your mouse over the parent container. This will select the parent container as well as any shapes or containers inside it.
Right-click on the selected area and choose “Copy” from the menu. – Or use the shortcut: Cmd+C (on Mac) or Ctrl+C (on Windows).
Paste the copied container wherever you'd like. – You can use Cmd+V (Mac) or Ctrl+V (Windows) to paste.
This should paste the entire container along with all of its contents.
@kkipipeline since you use the command key, I can tell that you’re using a Mac product. However, as a volunteer, this stumps me, so I’m gonna “phone a friend” so to speak. @Amelia W @Mj Z @Ambar D @Micah @Abby S
