FYI: I’m kind of a lazy girl so I hardly ever open a file just so I can copy and paste it… tooo much work … lol instead I open the folder and just move the needed element via drag and drop…. It makes live much easier. So when I’m writing “OPEN… blablabla IN YOUR CANVAS I mean drag and drop (I’m telling you this because… if elements are opened via drag and drop they have different sizes than the original and the Free Transform Tool is automatically active).
