Collect in a New Layer

As we saw in the previous tip, the Merge Selected command in the Layers palette turns selected layers and sublayers into a new layer with sublayers. If you want to preserve the structure of layers and sublayers, select the layers and from the Layers palette's flyout menu, choose Collect in New Layer. A brand new layer will be created that contains the layers and sublayers from the selected layers. (I just said "layer" 14…no, 15 times, but who's counting?)
