Images don´t combine when layering

[alonso216]

Hello,

I´m trying to create a single image that combines three layers: an image as a base layer then a levels layer (SHADOW: 20, MIDTONE: 1.00, HIGHLIGHT: 240) and finally a gradient layer over that (attached is a screenshot). I´m not sure why they´re not merging into a singel image with all the combined effects. Any tips?

What is the expected result versus actual result? We also need to see other layers (levels and gradient) settings: opacity and blending modes.

Hi Bojan,

The expected result is for it to look something like this:

The actual result is that none of the layers are combining to give the result above. In the screenshot below all layers are visible yet only the top one is visible.  I have not blended any of the images, and opacity for the gradient is at 100%.

Have you tried changing the Gradient and the Blending Mode?
