multiple layer copy

[yud]

is there a way to copy all the layer images within a selection?

meaning:

1. I've marked a selection (on the top layer)

2. I click copy

3. I paste

the result should be- all the image parts with in each layer is being copied and when I paste, each of the layers gets their own part copied and hence added to that layer again in the new pasted location

This is what I do, and I think it is the easiest way.

Make your selection

flatten the image (ctrl + shift + f)

copy selection (ctrl + c)

undo flatten (the undo button)

and paste the selection on whatever layer you want it.

Hope this helps and welcome to the forums!
