Paint Shop Pro :: X4 Paste Selection

Dec 4, 2011

I have just upgraded to PSPX4 from X2, but have been using PSP since it was a JASC product. So far I am not very impressed with the new version. My first stumbling block was when I couldn't increase the canvas size on a photo that I'm restoring (9120w x 13298h). A chat session with Corel identified the issue as being a 10000 pixel limitation now being imposed. Although I can work with images >10000, I can't increase any dimension past this figure. Who had that brainwave? I had to put my image into PSPX2, increase the canvase size and then load it back into PSPX4 to continue.

Now today, another issue pops up. I can't seem to find other hits on pasting selections within the forum though, so I am raising this.

I loaded two tif images into my Edit workspace. One image is fairly small and I copied this, switched to the larger image and tried a 'paste as new selection'. This worked OK. The I switched to a paintbrush and made a small change to the main image. I then tried pasting the copied image again with 'paste as new selection'. This time the program locked up with Windows trying to find a resolution. PSPX4 then crashed. I have tried various scenario's to narrow the cause down. So far it seems that I can paste a new selection as many times as I want, but as soon as I use a paintbrush to effect even a small change PSPX4 locks up. It either then crashes, as explained earlier, or I get the round no operation mouse cursor displayed. At this point the main control box buttons (close, minimize etc.) won't respond, neither can I switch to the Manage or Adjust areas. The menu trees respond, but selecting File/Exit doesn't work. I have to use Task Manager to close the program.

I had installed SP1, but trying to identify the cause of this issue I uninstalled X4 and reinstalled the base version from CD (332). All settings were left to default. This is how I am running now, so it looks as if SP1 makes no difference. I have also tried using jpg instead of tif, but this also makes no difference. At the moment I'm thinking of ditching X4 and going back to X2.

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit with 8Gb RAM.

Paint Shop Pro :: Paste Cuts Off Bottom Portion Of Selection

May 23, 2011

I've been having a recurring problem with Paint Shop Pro X3. When I try to paste a selection into an existing image, it cuts off the bottom 5-10 pixels. I hover over the existing image with my selection, and the entire selection shows up -- I move it into place, and once I paste it on, it cuts it off -- here is a screen shot -- left side shows full image when still 'selected' -- once I right click it cuts off a part of the bottom portion.

This is a piece of another image being pasted into a blank, new image. They are sized the same height (though that doesn't matter) and after paste, chop chop.

Paint Shop Pro :: Paste As New Image

Dec 1, 2013

Why is it necessary to have an image open before using the "Paste as New Image" function.

I want to be able to copy an image from another program and paste in into PSP for editing. I can only do this if I first open a new or existing image in PSP before doing "Paste as a New Image".

Paint Shop Pro :: X4 Paste From Clipboard

Nov 18, 2011

I copied a file from my Card Program and then pasted it into X4. Besides the quality being shocking the end section of the image was pasted at the beginning, which I saw mentioned in another post.

But the same clipboard image pasted perfectly in PSPX and PSPX3, so the problem is not with the image nor with the Card Program.
Below is the image shown pasted in X, X3 and X4.

Has this been addressed and/or reported or is there a fix. This is extremely poor standards and obviously is from incorrect programming in X4. Not impressed.

Plainly clear one cannot have only X4 installed to work with as it still has many bugs that have not been rectified.

Paint Shop Pro :: X4 Copy And Paste As New Layer

Sep 8, 2012

I've been using PSP since 7.

Now I'm using x4 and I noticed that when I cut/copy a portion of a pic and then paste it as a new image....then I want to copy and paste that portion back into the original photo using paste as new layer....the icon doesn't change automatically from the lasso/cut tool to the move tool.

It used to do that automatically in psp 7 so that right after I paste as new layer, i can move that portion around right away.

In x4, after you paste as new layer, you can't move that layer around because it hasn't changed automatically to the move tool. I have to manually click on the move tool everytime I want to move the layer around. It's very irritating!

Any settings I can change to make it automatically change to "move tool" right after pasting a pic as new layer?

Paint Shop Pro :: Paste As New Layer / Resizing Image

Aug 1, 2013

When I Select All/Copy a photo to Paste as New Layer on top of another photo, it always pastes as a humongous image. I have to scroll & scroll & scroll down to find grab handles, then fiddle & fiddle resizing the image to the same size as the underlying photo. I take the photos with the same camera. Seems to me the photos ought to be the same size!

Paint Shop Pro :: Copy And Paste Layer Into Exact Location

Mar 24, 2011

I have a two layer image:

layer 1. background

layer 2. A transparent vector layer with text

I have a second image, the same exact size and resolution as the first two layer image. I would like to paste layer 2 from the first image, into the same exact position on image 2. Every time I paste. it centers the text, whether it is just a ctrl-v, or a paste layer. I've even tried promoting the layer 2 in the first image then pasting as new layer into image two, with no luck. Everything I've done pastes layer 2 from image one, into the center of image 2.

I have PSP Photo X2

Paint Shop Pro :: Centering A Selection?

Aug 16, 2013

I'm using PSP 8 and suspect this will prove embarrassingly obvious...

What is the quickest way to centre a selection horizontally? IOW, the equivalent of using Objects > Align > Horz. Center in Canvas (Alt+o+a+z).

I often need to do this to shift titles if I've prematurely merged text layers into the background.

Paint Shop Pro :: Insert Into Selection Without Distortion

Feb 25, 2012

I want to copy an part of image A into an selection of picture B.

Using the command " Insert into selection" works, but i get a distortion of image A. The relation of heigth/width is changed by PSP, so that image A fits into the selection, but this is not what I need. I would prefer the parts of image A that don't fit into the selection being cropped.

Paint Shop Pro :: Crop To Selection Creates New Image?

Aug 19, 2011

Suddenly today when I use the "Section tool" on a photo and then 'Crop to Selection' a new image is produced of the cropped selection and the old image remains. I don't want this and it has never happened before in the years I have been using PSP.

I want the existing image to be cropped and then I will save it.

How I can reset the "Selection tool' to do what it has always done? BTW I had earlier today used the "Crop" tool and ever since the 'Selection tool' has been creating a new image.

I know you can custom size the selection tool by pixel position, but Is it possible to set the custom size of the selection tool to inches? For example I would like to have a custom size of 5 x 7 inches so I can place over an area and simple copy and then paste that 5 x 7 selection as a new image.

Paint Shop Pro :: Selection Is Surrounded By Coloured Line?

Jul 14, 2011

When I make a selection in a picture, the selection dotted line shows a coloured border, which is the colour of the second choice in the Materials palette. Especially if I make an addition to the selection, this coloured line runs right through the selected figure. If I copy the selection, undo the selection and then paste as a new layer, the coloured border, especially in added areas, remains visible.

how I can get rid of this strange artifact? I didn't use to have it, it emerged a few days ago.

Paint Shop Pro :: Cutting Sections Out Of Image Using Vector Selection

Jul 8, 2012

I want to cut out a section of an image and drop it onto a white background in another image.

I drew a vector point to point line around the area I wanted to copy and chose "selection from vector object" thinking that this would select the region inside the vector object. I then tried "copy merged" from the menu and pasted the clipboard into the new image. Now this didn't work and the copy only seems to copy the what is under the selection line rather than what is enclosed.

Paint Shop Pro :: Selection Using History Pallet To Extract Object

Feb 8, 2012

What is made in an exact moment (2:50) of the tutorial bellow, in which "history" pallet is used together selection to extract object. It seems to bring a better result than using "object extractor" tool.

So, my question is related to handling the "history" pallet as showed in 2:50 tutorial. It seems the "undo" is applied to the first "selection" action, but I couldn't make as in the tutorial. My PSP version is X4 and the tutorial version is X2. I don't know if something has changed and I am unable to make it in PSPX4.

Paint Shop Pro :: Bottom Pixels Deleted After Pasting Selection Into Image

Aug 13, 2011

Using the below steps causes a string of pixels to delete, and forum I visited [URL]..... with similar issues think it's a bug in PaintShop Photo Pro X3 13.0.0.253. I now have version X3 - 13.2.1.20 after updates.

1. Start a new image, with solid background.
2. Selection tool, rectangle, add/shift, feather 0, anti-alias on.
3. Draw out a 3" rectangle. Flood fill or paint in the shape with a solid contrasting color. Leave shape selected.
4. Go to Edit, Copy.
5. Go to Edit, Paste as transparent selection.
6. Place the copy to the right and up against the first shape.
7. Go to selections, Select None.

Take note that there is a string of pixels that is being removed. The above steps were posted by my peers in the PaintShop Photo Pro community forum I mentioned above.

What I’ve been trying to do is Paste As New Selection from one image into another, and pixels are cut off once I click to release the selection. I’ve tried different things, like expanding the canvas of the pasted image, and other things, but nothing has worked.

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?

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.

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.

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".
