Hello! I am trying to panelize a pcb. but I cannot paste the pcb to the panelize pcb file that I made. The board just keeps on floating. I clicked on the paste button for a lot of times and it is still not working. Please help me.

I'm not sure if there is a better way to panellize, but you can select the whole group to be pasted (Copy Group) and paste it anywhere.

a left mouse click should drop the floating copy

One way is to chose your panel as the pcb outline/border and then draw milling cut out into it and copy paste the cut-outs across the panel.
Thats how I am used to doing it. Make a new project select the panel as the pcb outline and put the mini-pcbs in there
Why do you need to panelize the paste files, if stencil is required for your boards, you can send indiivudl paste file and panelized outline to the fab.
They can panelize for you ,and fabricate required stencil that matches your design ( That's how we work on ALLPCB.COM).
If the boards need to be panelized, we can just use individual paste file and panelized outline, then the stencil can be created correctly .
Normally the PCB manufacturer will help for that ,I once got help from ALLPCB, and that's quite convenient for my assembly work !
