So, I'm now going to need to resort to using my mouse and ploughing through menus to find the three most useful masks I use when photo editing. Not sure I'm going to benefit from this change: An empty mask layer could have been assigned a shortcut key, but not the three new mask types. So all feedback at this point is valuable. But of course it's not like we get the comments from people who really liked how we made it with having the drop down / who might not like us changing it back. It's hard for us to gauge in the sense that the way we changed it in V2.0 to have the drop down generated quite a lot of complaints about adding clicks to just add a mask. Overall here we are listening to what people think.
Hi and welcome to the beta forums! Thanks for this feedback. Never thought I'd find something to complain about with AP! Unless of course I'm missing something Any chance they could be invoked by shortcut keys as the empty mask now is? I though personally, with my workflow, it was ideal as it was. Basically now if you have your assistant setting to this and you have either an adjustment or live filter layer selected, the new mask will be added as a child of those layers rather than placed above.Īgain we think this is the correct logic and matches feedback we have seen, but let us know what you think. However this was treating both Adjustment Layers and Live Filter layers as Masks for this purpose which was incorrect. Within assistant options, the logic is that if the current selection isn't a mask then the mask layer gets placed as a child, but if the current selection is a mask the new mask layer gets placed above. If you want to access the other mask options from the layers panel button you can now do that using Alt+Click.Īdding mask layer to selection = Add mask based on selection For this reason we have reverted to making single click on the mask button just add a mask. Helpful feedback has informed us that this drop-down menu is more of a hindrance than anything (as most users just want to add a mask much more frequently than any of the other options). As well as being available from the top Layer menu, we also included them in a new drop down when you click the mask icon in the layers panel. In Version 2 we added the new functionality of being able to apply live range masks (Hue, Luminosity and Band-Pass) as well compound masks to Affinity Photo.
