Describe the bug
i wanted to offset a gif, and tried doing that using the clipboard (by selecting the last couple of frames and pasting them at the beginning - this did not work, because Copy-pasting a set of frames in the editor pastes them after the first frame, even though "before" is selected in the history window - i think this only happens for subsequent paste operations, but am not entirely sure.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. open a gif in the editor
  2. select the last couple of frames
  3. cut them using ctrl-x
  4. go to the beginning of the timeline using the Home key
  5. select "before selected frame" in the history window
  6. paste
  7. (it might be possible to repeat these steps for the bug to actually occur, i've seen inconsistencies there - might also be, because i have multiple instances of Screen2Gif running)

Expected behavior
the cut frames are pasted before the first frame

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • Version [e.g. 2.38.1]
