After about 10 years of Photoshop, I'm in a situation in which I don't know how to solve it.
Let's say for example I have this 4 pixels pattern (image 1), and I want to paste it in multiple selections like so (image 2).
Is there a way to do it ?
I already tried by making it a pattern (image 3), but my selections aren't always lined up with a 2 by 2 grids, so it doesn't work.
Is there a "multi paste in selection" in Photoshop ?

Seems to work fine to me?
Is your pattern being dropped in at 100% scale?

Seems to work fine to me?
The goal is to copy paste only the 2x2 pixels selected in the first image onto all the selected places in the second image

strange workflow there,

I have to copy a 2x2 pixels area and paste it at a bunch of places in another layer. But working with a pattern doesn't work as it can flip the colors

But if you've got to go to the effort of 'selecting' a 2x2 location, why not just spend that time just making more layers?

I don't have to "select" all the 2x2 new locations, I already have a mask for it. So my initial question is how to "paste" or "clone" a 2x2 area over all the new 2x2 areas
The images were only for demonstration as I'm not allowed to leak anything about the project I'm working on

ok.
I don't it's possible to do what you're trying to, since 'pixels' on the same layer with a pattern overlay the same global pattern,
If you ever feel like sharing more about the actual project, I can try and help further. - Good luck in the meantime though!

Thanks for the help !

Hi, I would ask in the community forums, and tag thr discussion with action and scripting, the scripters out there might have a solution !
