Hi, I came from PS, there if you chose Move tool, press alt and click at a layer content it duplicates. There is something similar in krita?

There is ctrl+J for a duplicate layer, if that helps you.

In Krita 5 you have “Paste into active layer”, so just copy and paste into the active layer. Maybe not quite as quick as alt-dragging, but perhaps good enough?
