Sorry, I think there's a misunderstanding here: I proposed a mouse-driven way to create a new layer from an existing floating selection. (And not to paste the current (floating) selection into the respective layer.) And yes, that Ctrl-V anchors a copy of the current floating selection was new to me and probably should be better documented. Plus the "Edit" menu entry still says "Paste Ctrl+V" while "Paste Into" (which does the same) does not have a shortcut listed. Btw, http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-selection-float.html still seems to be from 2.4 times (or older), I'll crosspost this fact to the gimp-docs mailing list as well. Daniel
