Just adjust focus point on the lens. Here is a guide and some more examples.

The merging is part of the blending of stacked layers. I'm curious now about
other possible blending besides just focus points. I've been wanting to do
this for years. I think I even proposed the idea on this list before helicon
software or PS implemented it.
This will change the way I think about macros now, no longer locked in
to framing dictated by plane of focus. And the possibility to use the sweet
F-stop of the lens.
The fact the lens is internal focus, and hence changes focal length with focus,
seems to be managed by the auto-align step, as seen in the third example I
presented.
