Quick Export to JPG not capturing all layers

I have a drawing consisting of many layers. When I save to a JPG file using Quick Export to JPG, not all of the layers get incorporated into the image. However, if I do a Save As... and choose JPG, the save works fine. Any ideas?

What exact command are you using there is only a file >> export quick export to png?

 

If the layers are hidden they will not export, without a screenshot showing your layers and result, we really can't help you any better.

Please see my response to the previous comment. Also, here is a screen shot from PS. There were too many layers to see them all in the image, but you can see how the tower drawing looks while editing and see that it matches the Save As version above rather than the Quick Export version.

Hello, how is the shading done, a style, a texture, or painted?

Are you stating your Save As gives you a layered JPG -- that's not possible.

No, saving a multi-layered PSD file as a flattened JPG. The JPG exported using File > Export > Quick Export as JPG does not look the same as the JPG exported using File > Save As... a JPG because the Quick Export is not including some layers in the flattened image. Here's the two outputs. Note the shading on the top and bottom of the water tower. The Quick Export version is incorrect; the Save As version is correct.

I AM HAVING EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM. ALL LAYERS ARE VISIBLE QUICK EXPORT AS JPEG - NOT EXPLORING ENTIRE DOCUMENT.  IF I Save As jpeg then it will save it , otherwise, not seving everything. Were you able to figure this out, or does quick export not work.  this is a simple mock up 4 layer file - nothing fancy.
