Re: [Gimp-user] copy & paste

[Richard <strata_ranger hotmail com>]

There could be several reasons.  Check the following:

- If the target image is displayed at a smaller Zoom setting than the source image, a.k.a. the image you're 
copying actually IS smaller than the target image you're pasting it to.

- If you have a selection active on the target image and use the "Paste Into" command (instead of just 
"Paste"), the pasted area will be masked (cropped) to that selection.

- If the copied image is a larger size canvas than the target image, you'll need to expand the canvas (Image 
> Fit Canvas to Layers is a good command to know about) otherwise the image you're copying will get cropped 
to the canvas edges.
