If you have made a selection, pressed Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and a new layer appeared, the selected area is duplicated in the new layer. It’s exactly the same as the original and in the same place, so the image is unchanged. Take the Move tool and move the copy to the wanted place.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

    4. You may move the pasted shape by dragging it with the mouse, out of its handles (so the cursor will have the four-arrows shape).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
