Is there focus stacking in Photoshop Elements 2018?

[MTR70]

I would like to combine a series of the same macro shot with different areas of focus for an "all in focus" effect. I know it can be done in the full version of PS, but can it be done in Elements 2018? Thanks in advance!

No, this feature is not in Elements, but you can buy a very affordable add-on, Elements+, which has the feature:

Focus Stacking

The link I gave explains the process and it has a video to demonstrate how to do this.

If you need more help, you can even ask the author, Andrei Doubrovski.
