Since 2017 update copy merged function is no longer working. Is anybody else having this problem? It is a major issue as I can no longer make a stamp in my workflow.

Hi chrisl1966

At what point is it not working.

Is it grayed out/ or are you not able to paste after using it / or are you getting any error messages

Hi, it is not greyed out but it does not create the pasted layer. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Ps to see if that made any difference and it didnt

Can we see where exactly we differ (if there is a bug it may help locate it)

Start with two simple layers - background white - Layer 1 a black pixel square, the rest transparent.

Ctrl + A (Select All)

Shift + Ctrl + C (copy Merged)

Shift + Ctrl + N (new layer) - Enter for "OK"

Ctrl + V (Paste into new layer)

I get the merge layer pasted into the new layer

Hi

I am running Mac so it may be related to a Mac bug. You add in extra commands that weren't necessary before. You should be able to do Cmd + A then go to Copy Special/Copy Merged. This should produce a merged stamp of all of the layers as it used to previously work.

Possibly related. I can't copy text. It's not sticking to the clipboard.
