The Paste As New Layer command creates a new layer in the active image and pastes the image data from the Clipboard into it. If the data are not rectangular or square in shape, any regions that do not extend to the edge of the canvas are left transparent (an Alpha channel is automatically created). Of course, you have to Copy your selection before you use this command.

The Paste As New Layer In Place command creates a new layer in the active image and pastes the clipboard contents at exact coordinates the contents was originally copied from.

This feature is available for both the regular clipboard and named buffers.

The Paste As New Image command creates a new image and pastes the image data from the Clipboard into it. If the data is not rectangular or square in shape, any regions outside the selection are left transparent (an alpha channel is automatically created). Of course, you have to copy your selection before you use this command, so that you get an image with the same dimensions as the selection.

This command has the same action as the File → Create → From Clipboard command.
