Layer Actions
The Flatten Layer function embeds annotations and analysis markings in an image. This feature is useful
when users want to open and see analysis and annotations in a program other than the LS Software. If
layers are not "flattened", markings will not appear after opening the image in another program.
To access the Flatten Layers function go to the Image Action Tab and click on the
Flatten Layers button.
This function creates a new untitled image with annotations and/or analysis permanently embedded.
Save the image as a new file which can be opened in other programs to view the image with annotations
and analysis. Note: The flattened image markings cannot be edited.
Note: The original image will continue to display annotation and analysis information if it is saved and
reopened in LS Software. The annotations and analysis can be modified in the original image only.
