Is there a way to make the image not loose the transparent background, ie
use something other than Flatten Image

Thanks so much for your time,

thank you for this opportunity to contribute

there is a way to expand the layer to the canvas size so you don't have that annoying yellow and black band around your image when you expand the canvas and still preserve the transparency

1. make a new layer

2. move the original layer above the new layer

3. flatten

voila!

If Flatten is Flatten image then you lose the transparency. Perhaps you meant Merge down.

But Layer > Layer to image size does it in one step...

weird. it wasn't working before but now it is. thanks. sorry for the spam.
