Copy Merge - multiple layers

Similar to option in photoshop to copy merge when with multiple layers
Or when select multiple layers can copy them in one shortcut.
Have to copy-paste layer by layer.

Hello Sebastian,
Is it possible to do multiple selection on iOS? If so, what are the steps/buttons/finger movements?
Thanks,

I end up using Photoshop instead of Pixelmator most of the time because of the easy "copy merged," which I use constantly.

Not yet, unfortunately... For now, I can offer a workaround of a series of keyboard shortcuts:
Option-Command-A – Select all layers
Option-Commend-E – Merge selected layers
Command-C – Copy
Command-Z – Undo
It's not super convenient, but it's also not quite as inconvenient as it looks...![Emoji :grin:](./images/smilies/)
I think we will add a copy merged feature eventually but I can't quite make any promises about timeframes at the moment.![Emoji :pray:](./images/smilies/)

Just a small +1 from me on this one, I use this all the time in Photoshop.
Another workaround for this is to group all layers before copying – somewhat less destructive than merging them.

I'm gonna add another +1 to this. In Paint.net, it's shift-Control-C, and I use it *all the time*.

Another +1 on this. Just finding my way around Pixelmator (Photoshop convert). This is an essential feature for me.

Thanks for your answer @aurelija
I have tried it and it works but it doesn't appear in the Edit menu.
Would it be possible to add it ? having such a complicated shortcut without a menu item is tricky![Emoji :)](./images/smilies/)

That was the option I missed the most (copy merge) coming from Affinity. So you made me happy, really happy, so happy that I thought I let you know!

+1 On this issue. As a reformed PS user, this is a much-used feature.

+1 on this - happy to hear this exists!

It’s amazing to me that this quality of life feature has not been added yet. AI may be sexy and the big buzzword, but copying layers without jumping through hoops should be more of a priority than it seems to be. I can count on one hand how many times I use the AI, but I quietly curse the developers many times a day for lack of this simple feature.

It is there. Press Option + Shift + Command + C on your keyboard.
