I have fluked it and have a page with two copies of the two rectangles. i.e. two copies of the whole alphabet.
I'm not sure how I did it. Seems to me I have a basic, very basic, hole in my understanding that you could perhaps help with.
When and why do I make 'new layers'?
I have my original image.
I make a destination blank.
I copy to that blank.
After copying to it I 'make new layer' right?
Then copy again, a second selection.
And now I must again 'make new layer'? right? why?
an image with a fresh copy on it is not an image? it only becomes a workable image after being made a 'new layer'?
as I say, I have this image with two copies of my original selections. Lovely. what to do to it now to 'set it in concrete', to make it a finished image that I can work with - printout, select parts of and copy - whatever - a basic image just the same as the one I started with?
