Clear layer comp warnings

Certain actions create a state where the layer comp can no longer be fully restored. This happens when you delete a layer, merge a layer, convert a layer to a background, or convert a color mode. In such instances, a caution icon  appears next to the layer comp name.

 Do one of the following:
  • Ignore the warning, which may result in the loss of one or more layers. Other saved parameters may be preserved.

  • Update the comp, which results in the loss of the previously captured parameters, but brings the comp up to date.

  • Click the caution icon to see the message explaining that the layer comp can’t be restored properly. Choose Clear to remove the alert icon and leave the remaining layers unchanged.

  • Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the caution icon to see the pop‑up menu that lets you choose either the Clear Layer Comp Warning or the Clear All Layer Comp Warnings command.
