[default76b7f0ux27vq]

i have a bunch of layers for a character so i want to merge them together to clean it up, but i cant figure out how. ive been trying for hours please help

if you're just trying to tidy things up, you can create a folder and put those layers in that folder.

if you really want all the assets in the same layer select the layers you want to merge (using shift click and/or ctrl click)>right click>click merge layers

whenever i hit shift it doesnt work

you should:  create a folder and put those layers in that folder.

if there's some reason that doesn't work for you, what problem is there?

Are the various layers different graphics like PNGs or are they vector graphics? You tidy/merge layers as kglad has said. If there is something else you'd like to do with reducing the amount of assets, let us know the format and otehr options can be given

Unlock all the layers. Select all the layers. Then paste them back onto one layer.

Make sure you SELECT all the layers you want to merge in the timeline panel - then right-click over the highlighted area (near layer names) and select Merge Layers.
