[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 629347, member: 13090"] Well you can flatten the image without converting it to JPG; assuming you're working with a raw file to begin with, and then continue to process the now single layer in NIK if you want. I think it's pretty much a fact though, that sharpening should be the last, or nearly last step in your post-processing workflow. That's how I understand things but I'm certainly willing to be shown the light if my understanding is not correct. If I understand what you're asking I think the answer might be hiding the Viveza layers by clicking off their "eyeball" icons and then clicking on "Merge Visible Layers" under what I call The Hamburger menu (the Three-Horizontal-Lines menu in the top right corner of each of the palettes). That would merge only the [I]Background[/I] and [I]Background Copy[/I] layers, leaving your Viveza layers separate and intact while still applying the sharpening of the High Pass Filter to the [I]Background[/I] layer. That, or I'm not understanding you situation. Either is possible. :) [/QUOTE]
