[Gimp-user] Can a New Layer be positioned during the Paste, or does it require a Move

[DJ]

Hi Gimp-user,

I have a selection. I Edit/Copy and then Edit/Paste as "New Layer".
I move the layer to position it exactly on top of the previous
selection.

Can the Paste positioning be controlled during the actual Paste? In
other words, is there a key combination or sequence that would
position the Paste exactly on top of the previous selection?

I do use the arrows, which I understand move 1 pixel, and if you hold
the shift while using the arrows, the layer moves 25 pixels at a time.
It would just eliminate a step.


Thank you.
