Hello,

 ![IMG_0366](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex017/uploads/penpot/original/2X/5/59ad253ef2d5f3f3f5866d9b6c12c4eb4c23bd46.jpeg)

I often encounter this problem: what I see does not match the actual position of the components.  
To fix this, I used to go back to the parent team and reopen the file.  
But today, that isn’t working.  
Has anyone else encountered this issue?  
How can I resolve it?  
Thanks, everyone.
