Jop van Heesch Posted November 4, 2020 Share Posted November 4, 2020 I do not understand how I can refine a mask a second time (in Affinity Photo). To make more clear what I mean, this is what I have done and where I run into problems: I made a selection; used it to make a Mask layer; right-clicked on the mask layer and chose Refine mask; made some refinements and chose Apply. So far all good, but now I want to make more refinements, but if I choose Refine mask again, the refinements I made previously seem to be lost. If I press cancel in the Refine Selection panel, then I see the previous refinements are NOT lost, but I cannot figure out how I can apply more refinements, working from the mask that already was partly refined. This is driving me crazy, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MEB Posted November 4, 2020 Staff Share Posted November 4, 2020 Hi @Jop van Heesch, Welcome to Affinity Forums This is because the Matte Edges option/checkbox in the top of the Refine Selection dialog is performing (additional) matting on mask's contents. If you turn it off it should display your original selection. Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
