pasting new layers neatly in top left

[Jeff Junior]

For years when I pasted something as a new layer it went into my image neatly in the upper left-hand corner. I upgraded to a 2.10.6 and now I can't figure out how to paste a new layer in that corner; it either goes into the middle or into the original position. Any advice as to how can I get my new layers happily lined up in the top left when I add them to the image?
