How Do I Copy and Paste a Group in Procreate?

Published in Procreate Tips 1 min read

To copy and paste a group of layers in Procreate between canvases, you can pull the selected layers out, navigate to your desired canvas, and then drag the layers in. Here's how to do it:

  1. Select the layers you want to copy.
  2. Pull them out: Touch and hold one of the selected layers and slightly drag it outwards. This will allow you to move the selected layers as a group.
  3. Navigate to the Gallery: Without letting go of the layers, use your other hand to tap the "Gallery" button.
  4. Open the destination canvas: Tap on the canvas where you want to paste the layers.
  5. Slide and Release: Drag the layers towards the middle of the screen and let go. The layers will then be pasted into the new canvas.

Important Considerations:

  • Layer Order: Sometimes, the layers may paste in a different order. Double-check and rearrange them if needed.
