+Studio resizes now keep animated elements exactly where they were dropped. The saved GSAP scale and position match the frame shown during the gesture, preventing post-drop jumps.

+- **Studio:** Keep first, repeated, rotated, uniform, and per-axis animated resizes pinned to their drop point ([#3076](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/3076)).
+- **Studio:** Measure stylesheet-sized and legacy elements from their real box instead of a 200px fallback ([#3076](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/3076)).
