Work 2 photos concurrently

[Peem]

I am having difficulty loading two photos into Paintshop Pro X6 so I can work on them at the same time. I want to be able to adjust earlier and later photos of the same location so that they correspond exactly and I thought I might be able to load the second one into another layer so I could switch back and forward between the layers and crop et cetera so that both correspond. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Peter.

You should be able to Edit->Copy the 2nd image, Switch to the 1st image and then Edit -> Paste As New Layer (or simply drag with the mouse the 2nd image from its layers palette into the window of the 1st image),

Thanks migf1,
I had posted an update that I seem to be achieving close to what I want by loading the two pictures and alternating between them rather than trying to put the one in a second layer but It does not seem to have appeared yet. Will try what you suggest. Peter

I'd suggest unchecking Tabbed Documents in the Window menu. That will permit you to open a number of images in your workspace, permitting you to arrange them as you see fit.

Thanks All,
Will try your suggestions. I think I was over-complicating by trying to use layers and have had success just loading 2 photos at once. Use program infrequently so have to relearn.
