# How do I merge multiple layers of notes?

Combine two or more Layers into one from the Layers sidebar's 3-dot menu. Merging is **permanent** and can't be undone.

|| 📝 NOTE: This video shows a slightly older user interface, but the instructions are still accurate.

|| 📝 NOTE: Merging Layers can't be performed on [Live Layers](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/what-are-live-layers-and-how-do-i-get-set-up-1fowibn/).

1. Touch or click the **Layers** icon on the Top Toolbar:

| ✅ TIP: If the Layers icon isn't showing in the Top Toolbar, touch or click the plus sign on the right side to show additional icons. To pin it permanently, see [Customizing the Top Toolbar](https://help.scriptation.com/en/article/more-icons-and-customizing-the-top-toolbar-v1u97a/).

2. Touch or click the **3-dot menu** at the top right of the Layers sidebar, then choose **Merge**:

5. The selected Layers are now combined into one, which appears at the bottom of your Layer list. The **pencil icon** marks it as the active Layer:

||| ⚠️ HEADS UP: Once Layers are merged, they can't be unmerged. If you want to keep the originals as a backup, **Duplicate** them first (from the same 3-dot menu) before merging.
