Hi, Is anybody able to confirm if it is possible to apply a mask in this scenario? Basically, I have 3 images one on top of each other. I than grouped them together. These 3 images are a small part in a larger image as background. I am trying to apply a mask to erase a small area in the same spot to all 3 images (juxtaposed). It is also worthwhile mentioning that the 3 images are PNG with transparency and coloured areas. I bring in a test image with no transparency and it works but mask does not on the grouped images. Is this because I am using an images with transparencies or is it because I grouped the 3 images? Thank you.

Sorry, I will start a new topic.

Thank you! Good advice. I don't have Photoshop so I dab between 5 different types of image editors (the old Paintshop Pro Home Edition, Serif DrawPlus, Corel Paintshop Pro x7 and Serif Photo Plus x7. I already had Serif products so Affinity seemed a logical purchase and does offer great features which has added to the scope of functions available to me now. Good to know the forum will be always on hand to help! Much appreciated once again.

Hi Mesquito, your advice resolved my issue!! Thank you so much! It was indeed the accumulation, I had it at zero (not sure why that happened?!). Thanks for taking the trouble to make the reference video. also many thanks to all members who have helped on this thread.

Hi, I bought this software recently and was able to work once on a mask layer but since then masking stopped working. I am following the process from your tutorials, and others on Youtube but nothing is working. I also recently found that I am not the only one to have come across 'bug' issues on masks. This is very disappointing, just glad I am don't rely on Affinity for a living. Are you able to provide advice? I Have attached my file. Bug in Affinity.afphoto
