- **sum projection** - the sum projection simply adds together all the pixel values in the stack for a given position. In this projection, the image is typically re-scaled to a 16-bit image, as the sum of all the pixel intensity values usually exceeds 255, which would result in a completely white 8-bit image.
- **mean projection** - the mean projection is the average intensity projection. It simply averages all the pixel values in the stacks to make the final projected image.
- **median projection** - the median projection takes the median pixel intensity for the final projected image.
- **Single plane** - available for **Points** layers with more than 2 dimensions. Rather than an intensity projection, it adds a new points layer with the first axis removed (for example, dropping the z coordinate of a 3D layer), keeping every point along with its size, color, symbol, and features.
- **Link Layers** - links the selected layers. Once layers are linked, any action performed on one layer will be performed on all linked layers at the same time. The layer control panel will show _only_ when a single layer is selected. Changing properties with that layer's control panel will change properties in all of the linked layers.
- **Unlink Layers** - appears when layers are linked. It unlinks the layers so that changes to one of the layer's properties no longer result in the same changes to the previously linked layers.
- **Select Linked Layers** - appears only when layers are linked. Selects all layers linked to a given layer.
