When I was changing screen modes , I could not move my photo around on the screen with my cursor. Also in the "float all" mode,I was able to move around only the only front file.
Is there a disabled cursor feature somewhere I need to change?
Thank you

the name of the layer is different with these three meted, i assume the functionality is the same, (via copy or background copy i.e.) Am I right?

Thank you
