Jaimoe Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I tried to search this topic, but it's possible too simple or I am missing something as a new user. Is there a way to preview mask during brushing it? Alt+click gives black and white preview that can help in general idea, but currently I don't know how to do fine brushing when I need image layer as a reference. Tutorial examples usually show filled layers when one distinct colour appear over another, while I have problem with filter masking like clarity filter, where changed are not so visible.

Staff Callum Posted September 21, 2020 Staff Share Posted September 21, 2020 Hi Jaimoe, Welcome to the forums Does pressing Q to quick mask do what you are looking for?

Jaimoe Posted September 23, 2020 Author Share Posted September 23, 2020 (edited) Thanks, i will try it soon, I am just at the beginning phase of learning, but find many interesting things. For now, it looks that reducing opacity on fill layer and painting on it could solve this, thought I still don't fully understand how things work with masks, while Affinity looks very flexible, offering alternative options, which is really promising for my way of working. --- ...oh, I tried it in the meantime and that's exactly what I needed, as simple as pressing Q, but hard to find without some help or reaching the back cover of help index.
