Move an Object Between Documents and Have It Appear in the Exact Same Place
If you have something on a layer in one document, and you want the object to appear in the
exact same place in another open document, here's what you do: First, press-and-hold the
Command (PC: Ctrl) key, go to the Layers panel, and click on the layer's thumbnail to put
a selection around your object. Then, press
Command-C (PC: Ctrl-C)
to Copy that object
into memory. Switch to the other document, then go under the Edit menu, under Paste Spe-
cial, and choose
Paste in Place
. Now it will appear in the exact same position in the other
document (provided, of course, the other document is the same size and resolution). This
also works with selected areas—not just layers.
