Select and move part of an image

Hello! Thanks for the very cool application! I like it!
I’m using MyPaint’s version 2.0.0 on OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 with tablet XP-Pen G430S.

I have a question about the usage function for edit pictures.

I want to select a part of a picture and move the selection to a new location.
Is there a way to do it?

Thanks!

Sort of.

If your selection is on several layers, create a new layer from visible. (right click on the layers to get that option)

Erase all but the area you want to move.

The use the Reposition Layer tool to move your selection to the new location.

Thank! I will try this way

Did you get it to work?
