Move tool is selecting the entire photo and not just the selection brush part


Recommended Posts

Not sure what I did - but I am trying to just grab the purple part of the photo and "copy" it to put it into another photo. Usually I would use the selection brush, then hit the move tool, and press ctrl+c and then paste in the next picture. 
Now I cant do that. When I do it, it pastes the entire photo.

That's because you're using an image file.

Rasterise the layer to turn it into a pixel layer then all will be fine.

Some scientists claim that hydrogen, because it is so plentiful, is the basic building block of the universe. I dispute that. I say there is more stupidity than hydrogen, and that is the basic building block of the universe.

These are not my own words but I sure like this quote.

How exactly do I do that if you don't mind? Still learning affinity. 

1. Layers tab/choose rasterise from the drop down list.

Or

2. Right click mouse/select rasterise.
