There is no "paste-as-new-layer" function provided as such by the PDB interface (though there is a menu command for that) and so you must perform a couple of separate functions to achieve the same result. You do not need to set up a current layer, but you need to perform a 'gimp-floating-sel-to-layer' after your 'gimp-edit-paste'. This will result in a new layer at the top of the layerstack -- unlike the menu command, which places the new layer above the active layer -- and therefore it does not matter which layer (or drawable) is active at the time the paste is performed. If you instead wish the resulting new layer to appear just above the current layer then you will need to make note of the current layer's position (using 'gimp-image-get-layer-position') and lower the pasted layer accordingly (using 'gimp-image-lower-layer' the appropriate number of times). _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
