Hi all
Firstly I made a discovery, really helpful. I have always made selections from top left to bottom right and accepted only objects fully within the border will be selected, but the other day for some reason I did the opposite and found that it selects anything it contacts, not just encompasses so another handy feature.
Now for my issue, could just be me but I think it is a recent happening. When I make a selection and then Modify-Copy-Paste the object loses all layer info and becomes a single layer.
If I use Edit-Copy-Paste all is ok so is this a problem or have I got something set wrong?
thanks Roy

I think I am looking at whether to keep or delete the original and that checkbox has fell of the radar!
