Drag layers to another file… preserving locations?
Hi all:
Let’s say I have a PAL/DV document with several layers, and I want to copy all of them to another PAL/DV document (same size and resolution), so that they are exactly in the same place in the new document. Can one do that? I tried selecting all the layers in the layer palette and dragging them to the new document, but Photoshop will just leave them wherever they are when I release the mouse button; in other words, you need a steady hand to ensure that they are in the same place in the new document… :-). Is there any “assisted” way to do it?
Thanks in advance.

hold down the shift key when dragging, or use layerr/duplicate layers

Although there’s no reason you can’t do it by copying layers from PSD to PSD, since you want “another document (same size and resolution), so that they are exactly in the same place in the new document”, why not just save a copy of the PSD with a different name?
