Copy paste selection from placed image

[garywi]

Hi,

I want to make a selection from a placed image and then copy and paste that selection to the background image and then just delete the placed image. However when I create the selection on the placed image in the selection persona and then copy and paste in the photo persona I get another complete copy of the placed image and not just the selection. Is that a bug?

Thanks

Gary

Hi @garywi,

Selections only work on Pixel layers, and not Image layer. Check that layer and see if in between the brackets is says Pixel or Image. If it's Image, Right Click on the layer and choose Rasterise. 

Thanks,

Gabe.
