If you have created a floating selection, a temporary layer, called a “floating layer” or “floating selection”, is added to the layer stack. As long as the floating layer persists, you can work only on it. To work on the rest of the image, you must “anchor” the floating layer to the former active layer with the command. If the image does not contain a floating selection, this menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.

If there is an active selection tool, the mouse pointer is displayed with an anchor icon when it is outside of the selection. |
You can access this command from the image menubar through
→ ,or by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+H.
There are more ways to anchor a floating selection:
You can anchor the floating selection to the current layer that the selection is originating from by clicking anywhere on the image except on the floating selection.
You can also anchor the floating selection to the current layer by clicking on the anchor button of the Layers dialog.
If you create a New Layer while there is a floating selection, the floating selection is anchored to this newly created layer.
