Regression
Yes
RectTranfrom values of prefab with Canvas are lost after instantiation
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project
2. Open and play test scene (it has Test.cs script on Canvas GO which load and instantiate Button prefab with Top-Stretch anchors and then makes it child of Canvas)
3. Notice that button is not just on top, but stretched
4. Or compare coordinates before and after instantiation, it has changed
If Button prefab is dragged to the canvas, it keeps its RectTransform values
Not reproducible: 5.2.0b4

Hi. The behavior changed in 5.2 as we fixed a bug causing canvases to not update when instantiated. We will add a delay in so the canvas does not update the rect transform on instantiate, this will maintain the previous behavior.

Hey. So this is not actually a bug. What is happening is the GameObject is instantiated at root level and so the Canvas component sets all the values for the screen, note if you change the canvas to a world canvas the values remain untouched. So a simple way to work around this is to disable the canvas in the prefab and then enable it once it has been parented.
