thought you could, provided you had the separate instances of Inkscape open prior to doing the cut/paste. But now I've just tried exactly that and it doesn't seem to work.

I don't use cut and paste normally, so maybe I'm just dreaming that it worked before. ;)

The secret is that you need different windows in the *same* instance of Inkscape.

For example, if you have a file open, use that file's menu to open the second file and you get a second window in the same instance.
