Correct answer D Fosse

I have always had that option(TIFF) to save as without layers... as of this am it is now greyed out.  


Saving a layered TIFF as a flattened file will by definition have to be a copy.

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Options Bar, …) visible? 

Does the file actually have Layers?

If the issue arose when you used File > Save As try File > Save a Copy instead. 

 

And please post meaningful screenshots. 


Yes it does work with  File >  Save a Copy

Just flatten it, then save.
