Question

How can I copy and paste layers in Gimp?

Community Answer

While you have the layer selected, press ctr+c to copy and ctr+v to paste. Alternately, from the menubar, select Edit > Copy. There is also a "duplicate" function accessible under the layer menu or by right clicking on the layers dialog.

Question

Where can I find the creation hub?

Community Answer

The term "creation hub" can refer to different platforms or tools depending on the context in which you are looking for it. The Creation Hub on Instagram can be found within the app itself, often as part of the "Create" section where users can make and edit posts, stories, reels, and IGTV videos. YouTube's Creation Hub can be accessed via the YouTube Studio (studio.youtube.com), which provides tools for video editing, analytics, and channel management.

Community Answer

Click "File" in the top left of GIMP or right-click, then select "Open as Layers". You can also use Ctrl+Alt+O as a shortcut. This will open a file explorer where you can select and add images as layers.
