RE: [APML] OT: Photoshop question on layer flattening

["Jeff Ball" <jeffball@astro-photography.com>]

Bobby,
I believe you can deselect the layer you don't want flattened, then go
to your background layer, select the layer blending options from the
right corner arrow, select "merge visible", and that will merge only the
visible or active layers.  I guess this is the same as flattening.  I
hope that helps and I look forward to other hints.

Best regards,

Subject: [APML] OT: Photoshop question on layer flattening

A question for the Photoshop gurus out there:
Is there any way to flatten several but not all of the layers in an
image?
I suppose one could copy-n-paste selected layers to a new document and
then
copy-n-paste these on top of the original base layer, but is there a
more
expedient method?
Thanks,
Bobby Middleton
