    Hmm, it looks like a lot of people will be posting training on how to use the new program. It would be interesting to see how many people jump on this idea.

    Yesterday I watched the videos at the Lightroom Learning Center and I think they are awesome.
    Scott and Matt have done an amazing job here and I highly recommend it to everyone interested in or using Lightroom 2.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
