Hi Eric, 

I do recall that in Storyline 3, by default the objects retain their timeline position when pasting.

    Hello J T,

    Happy to help! Unfortunately, there isn't a way to change the default behavior in Storyline 360. You'll need to use the Paste Special command to have access to the special options: 

    The good news is that keyboard shortcuts work, so you can just press Ctrl+Alt+V to do a 'Paste Special' without having to go through the right-click menu. 

    Hope this helps!
