this case was closed in July of 2024, but retool is acting exactly as explained in the beginning.
The paste into / paste below is not working correctly, and there is no way to drag elements anymore.
@kbn you were part of the thread so tagging you
Please advice. Thanks!
Hi @WendyL,
Apologies for the issue.
Could you share a screen recording of the drag not working? It seems to be working on my cloud version. Are you self hosted or on the cloud?
Does it not work to drag or paste component on a new app?
@Jack_T
I'm on cloud.
I can hold and drag queries (which is not really useful haha)
but then when I try to hold and drag any kind of component (table, text, container) nothing happens
Also, "Paste into" random selects where to insert it, so I can't cut and paste into reliably
Hi @WendyL thank you so much for sharing the video!
I can confirm that the drag and drop unfortunately does not look how it did in Kayla's video and was not working for me either between containers or from outside of a container into a container 
Let me file a bug report for this! Will keep you updated on any news I hear from the team.
On the subject of pasting into a container, it seems that 'paste into' was consistently placing the inserted component into the end of the container's header or body.
Were you experiencing behavior where the 'paste into' was not adding in the component properly to the 'bottom' of the component list?

There doesn't seem to be a way to simply move an element between containers , or on either side of it, unless the container is the very top element. When a transfer from the container floor to your monkey type inventory gets interrupted due to you running out of weight capacity, you cannot start transferring any items ... It makes your container constructor move elements instead of* copying. It does not remove elements out of source container though, but leaves ...
