copy/paste shape into SAME LAYER

[VaporAction]

I'm trying to make a compound shape by copy/pasting a shape into the same layer and using Add to Shape area...

the regular copy/paste commands aren't working and it needs to be in the same layer so Duplicate Layer won't do it...

...make sure you have the actual vector mask selected (icon on the right of the layer) and not just clicking on the layer...
