--- Comment #9 from Dmitry Kazakov <dimul...@gmail.com> --- I'm looking into this bugs now. Firstly, about the blending mode. Krita follows these rules: 1) If merged layers have **the same** blending mode, then layers are merged together using "Normal" blending mode, and the result layer is set to the original blending mode. That is the only way that preserves the look of the image. 2) If merged layers have different blending mode, then there is no way to preserve the look of the image. It is theoretically impossible. Therefore Krita falls back to merging the layers using their own blending modes and resetting the blending mode of the destination layer to Normal. This way the user will lose minimum of information. And if he selects all the layers from the background layer, he'll get exactly what he expects to get. Conclusion: don't merge layers with different blending mode unless you really know what you are doing (and how these blending modes work). About adjustment layers, I'm not sure yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
