Alli_Bea Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Forgive me if this is a stupid question/has already been answered. I tried to search for it, but I couldn't find what I was looking for so I just figured I would create a post about it. I am trying to put an image of some music notes onto a blank white background. I opened a new white layer and then opened the music notes which have a transparent background. When I try to copy the notes and paste them onto the white background, instead of the notes going onto the white background, it removes the white and replaces it with the "transparent" checkered texture. I've tried multiple times, and I can't get just the notes themselves to copy and paste. I'm sure the solution is simple and I'm just a dummy, but some help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Zagna Posted August 7, 2019 Share Posted August 7, 2019 Use Ctrl+Shift+V to paste to a new layer. That way the white stays on its own layer and the new stuff is over it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex PN Fan Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) I have the reverse question--how can I change the white background of an image to make it transparent? Can I select all the white in the image and delete it? I'm thinking there is a simple way to do this but I can't figure it out! ETA: Nevermind, I found the answer! Thank you Magic Wand!!
