Composite Bands Output Issue

Question

so, i have two rasters, one is a categorical (say 1) that has values from 0-100, and the other is a continuous (say 2) DEM.

The desired band order is 2 and 1

When i run the Composite Bands tool and use the order 1 and 2 for the input rasters i get this output

When i run the Composite Bands tool and use the order 2 and 1 for the input rasters i get this output

Why is the band order 2 and 1 output so different and is not showing any values?

ps ArcGIS Pro 3.4.3 is being used

without seeing your legend, I suspect you are just seeing the band that is on top.  You won't "see" through all bands.  My point was about combining rasters, not what they look like.

thank you for the quick response Dan, but it's the same issue even after converting the categorical raster to floating point (similar to the continuous raster) using the Float tool.

DanPatterson · Answer

combine integers with integers or floats with floats, don't mix them.  The type of raster may be determined from the order applied

Check the raster input types, convert to a common type, then see if order affects the outcome
