Curious... Any way to merge (flatten) layers in UF? Similar to PS or PSP...merge all, merge visible, etc. For example, if I have an image 10 layers deep, can I merge that into one layer, and then start adding more layers on top of it? Gary

I have never seen this done in any of the upr's sent to the UF list. I believe that the idea is for all of the layers to be completely editable always.

Fractals will always amaze me!

No there's no way of doing this. :-)

Yeah...I figured it was wishful thinking... Thanks.

Why do you want to flatten them? Is there something you are trying to accomplish? If so, maybe there is another way to accomplish it. Let us know what you are trying to do. Linda

When I would do Apo post, I would duplicate the base layer, 3 or four times. Add noise to one, a texture effect to two maybe, then maybe add a laquer filter to one, merging and playing with transparencies to suit...til I had an image I liked. Then I would flatten them, and start the process over, this time duplicating the flattened image several times, adding contrast, saturation, blurs, etc. Make sense? I realise I could do work arounds in PS or whatever, but I'm trying to stay pure to UF. But I think SimonKaye summed it up.

Mmmmm . . . I think SimonKaye is correct. No can do. Sorry! Linda
