Photoshop question

mello

I was flattening an image & for some reason the layer style effects

changed. I think that it my be caused by one layer in particular. It has:



Inner Shadow

Outer Bevel (w/texture selected in the Bevel and Emboss section)

Pattern Overlay

Stroke



I found out that when I turn off the texture the changes are minimal

when flattened. It's still not like the layered version though. The bevel

looks about 15% thinner when flattened. When I try flattening it with

the texture selected, the bevel almost completely vanishes when

flattened.I've been working with photoshop for years & I've never

seen this happen before.



Any ideas?

I have seen things like this happen before, I'd suggest trying to merge some of the layers separately from the flattening of the entire image, the order in which certain effects are rasterized can have an effect on the final image
