Hey can anyone shed some light? (PS7.0) When I do a Ctrl-X and then Ctrl-V it now pastes into the same layer, whereas before I thought it pasted into a new layer. Am I mistaken? Ctrl-C and then Ctrl-V does make a new layer.

Wha’ happened?

It should work. I suggest trashing your preferences, which is almost always the first port of call when PS doesn’t behave the way it should.

Bitmap (one bit) Mode perhaps?

It’ll paste to the same layer if your image is using index colours.
