FINALLY, A SHORTCUT FOR CREATING A FLATTENED LAYER

I'm not talking about flattening your image. I'm talking about a new layer that contains a flattened version of your whole layered document, without flattening your layers. That's right one layer that looks like your flattened document. You could do this in previous versions, but it took a little doin'. Now, it's just one simple keyboard shortcut, and it even creates the layer for you it's Command-Option-Shift-E (PC: Control-Alt-Shift-E).
