Expected Behavior

The position should be the same when start up.

Current Behavior

image

The position is not correct when startup.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Select some sources and Ctrl+E, change Positional Alignment to something else like Bottom Center
  2. Group the select sources
  3. Do a transition, make preview and program the same
  4. Exit OBS
  5. Start it again, and you should see the source is not in right place.
    ...
Anything else we should know?

I also find that sometimes when drag and drop source in or out of the group can make group's position goes wrong, but I can't find a way to reproduce it yet.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the listed grouped-source and positional-alignment steps in OBS Studio on Windows 10, using the supplied OBS log for context. No source file or test is identified; done means the group retains the expected position after transition, restart, and the reported source drag-and-drop cases.
