rcoombs Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I have 2 diagrams which are similar but not identical. I want to have them side by side on the screen for easy comparison, or have 1 in the background and the other in a layer so that I can flip between them. How can I do this? I greatly appreciate any help, Thanks. RMHC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eli Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 You can increase the canvas size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anchor the existing image left middle and click OK. Now move one layer to the right so the images appear adjacent.

Ego Eram Reputo Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Activate the layer you want to move by clicking on it in the layers window Press M to activate the Move tool. Drag the image sideways or use the keyboard arrows.
