JimGoshorn Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 I tried the Light interface and noticed something odd. In the Dark interface, if you paint black onto a mask it appears black on the layer thumbnail. If you do the same thing with the interface set to light, the mask thumbnail will appear gray instead of black. Am I missing something?

GarryP Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Have you tried using the Colour Picker on the mask area in both Light and Dark modes and checking to see if the colour values are different or whether the black on the thumbnail just looks different because of the contrast difference to the rest of the UI?

JimGoshorn Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 So I painted a mask with black and took a reading of the mask thumbnail in dark mode and I got 25,25,25. I then changed the interface to light mode and took a reading of the same mask and I got 195,195,195. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted July 8, 2020 Staff Share Posted July 8, 2020 Hi @JimGoshorn, Apologies for the delayed response here and many thanks for your report! I can confirm that I've replicated this issue here, with different (but still incorrect) results on both Mac and Windows. I'll be logging this with our developers now, and it should be fixed in a future update Quote Please note - I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time. Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible. Many thanks!
