Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag (Mac
OS) the selection with the Marquee tool to create a copy of the selection
and its image pixels.
The copy becomes a floating selection, which seems to hover above the main image. You can move a floating selection,
or you can select the Transform tool to scale or rotate the floating selection.

Do one of the following:
•
Click outside the floating selection to deselect it. The selection’s content is pasted into the image, replacing the
pixels that were below it.
•
Click in the floating selection with either the Marquee or Transform tool and Alt-drag (Windows) or Option-drag
(Mac
OS) to make another copy. Once copied, the original floating selection is deselected and replaces the pixels
that were below it.
Pressing Control+Shift+T (Windows) or Command+Shift+T (Mac OS) duplicates your last duplicating move. This
is an easy way to clone content multiple times.
