Everything works correct on this release except s mall regression.
Drag an asset, keep the mouse button  pressed trying to drop it as far as possible on the canvas/artboard then release.
It drops something so small no one can distinguish it, but more than that, it is impossible to resize via the transform section tab, impossible to select it and do a manual resize because the thing is not even existent on the layer stack.
Only turn around i found is to release the mouse button as soon as it reaches the border of the canvas/artboard; only then, things are okay and I can work easy.
Need to fix it so people making a lot of use of Assets to not go crazy thinking they made mistake or broke the app.

Thanks for your great job.

Never be the Same Again !

That doesn't happen for me.

Thanks for your great job.

Unfortunately I'm unable to reproduce this either - does this happen for some of the Assets in the iOS 12 category? Could you get a screen recording demonstrating the behaviour you're getting along with attaching the associated pack if it is a custom one?
