P: Export layers to files bug

export layers to files is merging each layer with one other layer on export. I have a bunch of text only layers and half a dozen regular image layers. I'm exporting png24. I've used this feature extensively and today it starts doing this. I finally found a work around - I put a blank text layer at the bottom of all my text layers and at least now I can't see the overlay. Also, export layers to files only seems to work right if I set my visiblity and choose Visible Layers Only. Any other choice causes the program to terminate early with some sort of "delete isn't available" or something.

Actually, I just figured out what the issue is: if you're exporting layers to files, even if you have the box checked to export only visible layers, but there's a hidden locked layer other than the background, the export script will fail.

I'm having this same issue in cc2019. It started all of a sudden; export layers to files is a script I use almost daily, and now I get the same error as this user.

This issue should be fixed by today's CC 2017.0.1 update: http://blogs.adobe.com/photoshop/2016/12/photoshop-now-supports-touch-bar-on-the-new-macbook-pro.htm...

For the layer merging issue, do you happen to have a group in between two non-group layers? If so this is a known issue that I will raise in priority.

For the hidden layer issue - I've reproduced with a group. Non-group layers are working for me. I'll open a bug for this.

Thanks,
Eric
