Merge Issue with Adobe Illustrator Draw

[melvinh43625280]

Hello All,

I am currently using Adobe Illustrator Draw, version 4.5.  When I make an adjustment to, lets say, layer 1 (i.e. blend mode or opacity changes) and attempt to merge it with, lets say, layer 2, layer 1's properties are switched back to default.  I need to be able merge layers with various opacity/ blend settings and keep the information in the newly merged layer so that i can manipulate it as a whole.  That is not happening.  Any help with this?

HI Melvin.

I'm sorry for taking so long to respond.  Right now, as you've seen, Layer Blend Modes don't hold when layers are merged.

I don't know whether there are plans to change this in a future version of the app, but I'll share your comments and screenshots with the Draw team.

Sue.
