I want to stack a transparency map on top of a road map (from Street and Trips), then size the top one to match with the bottom one and then group the 2 maps as one. Could the expert here show me how to do it?

Thanks in advance!

Alice

drag transparency map image onto road map image (move tool or V)

Control-T or edit Free Transform to resize the top one. Hold control key to constrain while resizing or enter % in field at top. Must hit enter key to apply transformation.

Tiny button above opacity % window on layer manager = Flatten image to group 2 maps as one. Or Layer - Merge down/visible/flatten, wth only 2 layers they all do the same.
