well, nevermind, I am guessing that accessing and merging an 8 channel layer + rgba just isn't possible (w/o doing an "All"). Anyways, I did 2 matte layers, and reworked the comp a bit, think it is working now.

Thanks,

So I am trying to pass 6 mattes through a large comp. I created a new layer, and I can pass 4 mattes down no problem, but I am just realizing I am not sure how to access the additional 2 mattes. The shuffle node lets you create an 8 channel layer ( in this case Layer1, r, g, b, a, x, y) And the shuffle node help info says "rearrange up to 8 channels." How does 1 access the next 4 channels, or is it even possible?

Additionally, the merge node, only lets you "also merge" 1 extra layer. My mattes are going through many type of merges. So for the sake of a clean and understandable comp I would like to have all my mattes pass through in 1 layer.

I suppose, if it came to it I could just make 2 layers and then "also merge" "all". And do a bit of reworking of the comp. But I would still like to know the answer to this question.

Thanks,
Adam
