RefreshingChange Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Hi all, I am new to Afinity Photo so forgive me if this is obvious. I am used to Photoshop. I use the marque tool to select part of a layer and then choose Copy and then Paste (into a new layer) I just get a complete copy of the whole layer and not the part I have selected with the marque tool. What am I doing wrong? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchshader Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Right click on the layer you want to copy from, and click rasterize. Should work now stokerg 1 Quote intel core i5, 16GB 128Gb ssd win10 Pro Huion new 1060plus. philips 272p 2560x1440px on intel HD2500 onboard graphics Razer Tartarus Chroma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I doing wrong? Because you work with Image layer (single object - whole image), not Pixel layer (array of individual pixels after image rasterize).
