    "Flatten Image" causes all of the layers of the image to be merged
    into a single layer with no alpha channel, with the same
    appearance as the full image viewed from the top.  If there are
    any areas with transparency all the way through to the bottom of
    the layer stack, they are mixed with the image's background
    color. This operation is performed as part of the process of
    exporting an image, if you save it in a format that does not
    support layers.

    “平整图像”将导致图像的所有图层合并成为一个没有 Alpha 通道的单个图层，其外部表现和从顶部看整个图像相同。如果有任何可以看到底部图层的透明区域，它们会被图像的背景色填充。在导出图像为不支持图层的格式时，该操作会作为其中的一步被执行。
