GIMP :: Paste In Same Place As Copied Selection Was (2012)

Feb 11, 2012

I have two images of the same size (e.g.800x600)

I select a region of the first image with any selection tool (e.g. the fuzzy select tool) I copy the selection.

Isn't there a way to paste the selection into the second image at exactly the same position where it was in the first image?

It seems to me unbelievable that there is no such option, but I can't ind it. I must be missing it. In Adobe flash it is called "paste in situ".

GIMP :: Paste Selection Into New Layer

Oct 19, 2011

I've come to GIMP from PS.

So, in PS if you make a selection and past it into a new layer it ends up in exactly the same position, however if I do the same on GIMP the selection is pasted at the top left hand corner. Then it's a major pain moving it to exactly the same place as the original

Most of my workflow is doing this sort of thing so it's real problem now.

GIMP :: Copy / Paste And Move A Selection?

Mar 28, 2011

I'm a longtime Photoshop user in the process of switching to Gimp. I've successfully used Gimp for very simple things like brightness/contrast, color adjustment, and sharpening of single-layer images. What I'm trying to do now involves creating a copy of the background and placing it next to the background image, and I can't figure out how to make it work.

Here's what I'm doing:

1. Resize the canvas to twice the width of the original image, leaving the original image at left. This creates a "blank" area to the right which displays as a checkerboard pattern.

2. The area of the original image is already selected (i.e., it already has a frame around it), so I copy and paste it. This creates a floating selection, duly noted in the list of layers.

3. But when I try to move the floating selection to position it to the right of the original image, in the blank area, it appears to disappear behind the checkerboard pattern.

GIMP :: Push Control C Of A Selection And Paste It

Sep 8, 2012

If I right click on the selection & go to edit copy, I can copy OK.

If I type control "C", the Create Clip window pops up and it wants me to insert the previous copy I did.

This same thing happened to me 4 months ago & I overcame it somehow; but then I reloaded Gimp and I am now back to where I once was.

I want to push control C of a selection and the paste it. But it makes me do it the long way, right click menus.

GIMP :: 2.8 - Can't Copy And Paste / Selection Doesn't Go To Clipboard

Jun 11, 2012

I just got Gimp 2.8 for Mac. I can open a picture, do a blur and export. The copy paste is giving me problems. It worked once. I make a selection with the rectangle and do a control c. I also tried the menu. The selection doesn't go to the clipboard. After 6 tries, the same original copy was the only one in there.

GIMP :: Clicking Rulers Loses Freehand Selection (2012)

Jan 16, 2012

I'm zoomed in and am creating acomplex freehand selection. I'm now selecting stuff at the very top ofthe canvas, and I happen to miss a bit and touch the 'ruler'. Suddenly,GIMP switches to the move tool and I've lost the whole selection! How this behaviour can be turned off?

(I know I can turn off the rulers, but it's annoying having to turn themoff and on all the time since they are sometimes useful.)

Is there a way to make rulers be off by default when I start Gimp? Iknow it's just a matter of clicking ctrl+shift+r, but that's easy to saywhen you've just lost a huge, painstakingly made selection …

CorelDRAW X6 :: Copy Paste Is Not Proportional When Copied From CAD Software

Apr 26, 2012

when I draw an object (let's say a line that's 10 inches long) and paste it into corel the size varies based on how much I'm zoomed in.

fwiw I'm using 'paste special' and using picture (metafile) this way I can keep the points. if I just paste as autocad I loose the points, and an arc might become a rectangle as far as points go...

I tried DWG and DXF and it's the same problem. metafile lets me keep the edges and such for nodes at least. I'm having the issue primarily with DesignCAD and AutoCAD

Xara :: Not Paste Text Copied From Table In Powerpoint 2010

Aug 14, 2012

I've just updated to the latest version which I'm pleased to say resolves both the pdf arrow issue and the text issue I had.

Xara will not paste text copied from a table in powerpoint 2010. My workaround is to copy and paste the table text into a text box within powerpoint and then copy that text into Xara. However I do a lot of pasting from tables in powerpoint and obviously if i could copy direct (as I could from older versions of powerpoint) then my workflow time would half for this -

Illustrator :: Paste Copied Item To Specific Location Determined By Point-click

Oct 30, 2013

In most vector based programs I am used to using a function which allows you to paste a copied item to a specific location determined by a point-click. I find this endlessly more useful than pasting to the centre of the screen, or even paste in place, as both are rarely anywhere near where I would like an object to be. I find the function of point-click paste does away with endless dragging of objects across the screen.

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Modify Objects Copied From A Selection Set?

Nov 17, 2011

I am creating a selection set using ssget...

Then I copy that selection set multiple times in a loop.  What I would like to do is then rotate (or otherwise modify) the last copied group of items.  If I rotate "last" it will only accept the last drawn item, so only one item in the group of copied objects will rotate.

Here is the portion of simple code I am using right now (it's in a loop so all variables with 'Next' are changing each time):

(command "_.copy" SS1 "" SS1Base NextPT)
(command "_.Rotate" "l" "" NextPT NextAng)

This works fine with a single object, but I can't figure out how to call up the entire group of objects.

Photoshop :: Paste In Place?

Jul 18, 2006

I've been doing PS for 10 years, it's time I learn how to do this... Paste in place? Anybody know how to do it? I'm running PS 7.0 on Windows XP. I make a selection, ctrl+x (cut), ctrl-v (paste) and it always pastes it somewhere other than where I cut it from.

Photoshop :: Paste In Place In CS6 Is Not Working

Feb 5, 2013

I've been using the Creative Suite since CS4,I'm building a psd file with vectors from an ai file. I recall that in CS5 and CS5.5 I had no issue copying a vector from Illustrator and then using "paste in place" to land it in the same relative spot on the Photoshop canvas. Today, my world has crumbled! Try as I might, I cannot get my vector shapes to "paste in place".
 
I am using Windows 7, service pack 1, and CS6 64 bit edition. Both Illustrator and Photoshop were entirely up to date as of today, I have already tried dumping the preference file, to no avail.
 
it seems that Illustrator's clipboard has been handling data differently somehow, and I'm pondering whether this might be the culprit of my issue. However, copying and pasting in place within Illustrator seems to work fine, problems only arise when I copy from Illustrator into Photoshop.

Photoshop :: Paste In Place Shop CS2+

Jan 30, 2009

The old "paste in place" function seems to be missing in CS2 (gosh i miss Shop 7 sometimes).. any idea of workarounds that aren't more than 2 steps?

moreover: I have a selection, want to cut out or copy and place in the exact same place (either in same layer or new). Sometimes it works, sometimes it don't. I can't tell why it works only some of the time.

Photoshop :: How To Copy / Paste In Same Place On Another Level

If I copy something from one later and paste it onto another layer, it puts it dead centre and then I have to move it to align it with where it was.  This is a bit of a hassle.  Is there a way to copy from one level and then paste that item to the exact same place on another level?

Paint.NET :: Make Same Copied Patter Copied In Different Positions In Circle

Mar 18, 2012

I' only trying to create a logo for a project of mine.

This logo is composed by two things: the first one is the picture of the logo itself, than the second is the text part (which is not the hardest thing to do).

What I'm trying to do is, once have drown the "subject" (a light blue drop, in my case), to copy and paste it in order to have other four copies of the same drop, but moved and rotated to create something like a circle..

You can find the original logo I created attached. But I'm not really satisfied with it (this is also why I'm writing here!) =)

I'd like to re-create it and put the drops as in the attached logo....

Illustrator :: Won't Paste In Place / Front / Back On Selected Artboard

Aug 22, 2013

I am having trouble with the Paste in Front/Back function. I will copy my selected layers and then want to paste them in place on the selected artboard next to it and often times it pastes it back on the artboard where it copies from. Sometimes the function does what I want, but often times it pastes in a different location, either on the same artboard, or next to the artboard where I want it pasted. It also tends to slightly move the X and Y values (again, sometimes). Each time I go to paste, I am creating a new layer and selecting the artboard where I want everything pasted, but sometimes it works, and other times it doesn't. I am using CS5 on MacBook Pro.

GIMP :: Paint Brushing Copied Texture Possible?

Apr 24, 2012

I have an old photograph. The print is not in good shape, it looks like an old oil painting with cracks all over the place. It looks bit like a jigsaw. I have to zoom in quite far and when I do, I can, if I wish, select a small area that is homogeneous. The area is a coat, so it's sort of a cloth texture. Now, to my way of thinking, I wish I could select this small area and the select paintbrush which would lay down a textured area exactly like the selected textured area.  That would be kind of a magical paintbrush.To my limited mind, I think I may have to paint over the whole photograph to restore it. But, anyhow how might I begin to restore this photo I have?

GIMP :: Layers Hiding The Copied Image

Nov 23, 2011

I have an image that I resized and that resulted in a gray checker board pattern above and below the original photo. I tried to add another photos above by copying and pasting it but get nothing I can see.

I tried merging visible layers but that did nothing (obviously since the copied photo is not visible).

Specifically I open the second photo, Select > All, Edit > Copy, went to the first image Edit > Paste resulting in a outline box of about the right size but without anything in it. I dragged this to the place I wanted it but I cannot get it to become visible. When I anchored the layer the outline box went away.

I have two layers but the second layer appears to be exactly like the first one.

GIMP :: Copied Font Layers Revert To Default While Editing

Nov 25, 2012

In GIMP 2.8, I'm having an issue with font settings not sticking with copied layers.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Click the text tool, then click the canvas.
2. Type the word "Cow".
3. Double Click the word "Cow" and set it to a fancy font, pink, and 24pt.
4. Select the "Cow" text layer and duplicate it.
5. Move the duplicated layer down. You now have two "Cow" layers in a pink, fancy, 24pt font.
6. Double click the word "cow" in the copied layer to highlight the word "Cow".
7. Type "Chicken" over the word "Cow"

Expected result:

The text is now "Chicken" in a fancy, pink, 24pt font.

Actual result:

The text is now "Chicken" in the default font.

In order to keep the font you want, you have to insert the new text after the first letter of the existing word. ie: "CChickenow", then remove the extra "ow" from the end, then remove the "C" from the beginning. This is very tedious and frustrating.

I am aware that you can set a default font to whatever you want (except making it bold by default?). But, if I copy a layer and type over it, it's because I wanted to copy the appearance of the layer, not start over with a new one. Is there a setting I can change? Or is this a known issue with text editing in 2.8?

Photoshop :: Paste Into Selection

Apr 4, 2006

I have two images. In the first image, I use the rectangular marquee to set a selection that is 50x50. I basically want to take a 200x200 selection from a second image and paste into the 50x50 selection. I want the 200x200 selection to display in full when pasted into the destination?

Second question, when using the rectangular marquee is there a way to manually set the width and height to exact numbers via the keyboard?
