Yes, there is a way to paste an element directly to the top of a group in Webflow without having to manually drag it to the top every time. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Select the element you want to paste.
  2. Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + C to copy the element.
  3. Select the group where you want to paste the element.
  4. Use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V to paste the element.

By using Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V instead of the regular paste shortcut, the element will be pasted directly to the top of the group, saving you the time and effort of manually dragging it to the desired position.

This feature is particularly useful when working with larger groups or nested elements, where it may be difficult to manually position the element at the top.

Additionally, you can also use the Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + V shortcut to paste elements to the bottom of a group by selecting the group and using the shortcut.

By utilizing this shortcut in Webflow, you can speed up your workflow and easily position elements within groups without the need for manual positioning.

Note: This shortcut only works when pasting elements within a group, and not when pasting elements directly onto the canvas or inside other elements.
