related to a flattened stack of layers? I don't understand that.
Is "visible" referring to the visible part of an image, as when the
canvas is smaller than the image, or to the visible layers (the 'eye')?
It is the copy of how the image looks, the visible result of your work.
That's evident.The aim is to further manipulate the result, but keep the steps that created this situation. Example: You want to selectively blur some areas of your multilayer image. You create a new layer from what you see, blur it and then erase the parts you want your original work to show.
The resulting layer is the same with both commands. What is the interest
of adding this new layer on top of the stack?
