I try to copy and paste a selection, but I fail. What I do:

 

start safari 

copy this image of neuschwanstein to clipboard https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Schloss_Neuschwanstein_2013.jpg

open affinity photo

close start dialog

select file, new from clipboard

make a rectangle selection around a tower

cmd+c

cmd+v

 

What i want to see is a copy of the rectangle selection. But Affinity Photo duplicates the layer including the whole image. What do I wrong?

Hi ralf,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

Right click on the layer and select Rasterise (this will convert the image from an image entity to a raster container - labelled (Pixel) in the Layers panel, rather than (Image)), then copy/paste your selection. It should copy only the content inside your selection.

Let me know if you still have trouble.
