I often prefer to do it myself – i.e., Ctrl-click (or Command-click on a Mac) on an alpha channel to select its contents – then go into another channel and either fill that selection with white or black as needed. Hope that makes sense…

Indeed, and thanks!, although it’s pretty FRIKKIN annoying that the IMAGE/CALCULATIONS command is ghosted if two alpha channels are selected. (grrrrrrr)

WUWT, Adobe???
