SuperEdit Cut / Copy / Paste editing is most often used for moving around selected raster areas within the same image or for transporting them between different raster images. SuperEdit operates in world coordinates, defines the insertion base point, and allows for rescaling and rotation while inserting raster blocks.

Open office.tif . Suppose that we need to create an insert showing the stairway scaled up two times. Click the Copy rectangle button on Raster toolbar. Select the OTM option: To File or To Clipboard. The latter does not require saving the file, just stores it as temporary object in clipboard. In case of the first option, do as follows: choose Pick corners of a rectangle to copy, starting from lower left corner. Choose OTM Accept option to accept default position of the insertion base point , shown as small gray circle. Then choose a name for copied raster image, e.g. stairway.tif .

Click the Paste raster button on Raster toolbar, select consequently OTM From File option. Choose the file name you have used in the Copy raster operation. Click Zoom extents button and place Target point in the empty area on the right side of the drawing. Now we are resizing the image being inserted; to do it numerically, type Tab 2 Tab 2 Enter , to put proper values into the Input bar boxes that display the X and Y scale. Since we do not want to perform the last rotating phase, choose the OTM Accept option to finish the whole action. SuperEdit inserts a scaled up image that you have copied to the stairway.tif - it should look similar to the figure below. With the To Clipboard option selected, always last copied image will be used.

Try other options of cut, copy and paste commands, e.g. using polygonal areas and various combinations of moving, resizing and rotating actions.
