Question

Paste Remembers Layer

  • June 22, 2026

Adobe Illustrator CC 2026 (30.5.1)
Edition: Windows 11 Pro (64 bit) - Version 25H2
OS Build: 26200.8655
64.0 GB RAM

Installed ALL Astute Graphics plugins.


I've checked and set the Layers Panel default to: Paste Remembers Layers.

Issue: Paste does NOT Remember Layers.  

Tried: Paste, Paste In Front, Paste In Back, Paste In Place, Paste On All Artboards, Paste Under My Legs, Paste Over My Shoulders, Paste Over My Arms, and Paste Over My Head.  All options FAILED.

When I copy and paste a single layer from a new Illustrator file with just two objects I start a new Illustrator document and paste those in there, both objects are pasted on a single layer.

Please help.

    Hi @jeffwill1969,
     

    Sorry to hear about the trouble. I tried to reproduce this on my end but wasn't able to. To take it forward, could you share:

    1. A brief screen recording of the issue
    2. A sample file where the problem is reproducible

    You can upload both to Google Drive, Dropbox, or similar and share a public link here or via DM.


    Looking forward to your update.

    Anubhav
