m888 Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Am I doing some wrong? I have a layer with an SVG image to which I've added a mask. But when I fill the mask with black (0,0,0), the image is still faintly visible. Shouldn't it be 100% erased? Just to prove the mask is working, two images are attached, the first with 100% black mask, the second with a region of the mask painted white to expose the black drawing. I even tried putting an opaque white layer behind it all in case it was some weird transparency artifact. This is on Windows 10, Affinity V 1.9.0.932 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m888 Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 AHA! it seems to be a problem with CMYK. I converted the doc to RGB-8 and now I can erase fully artsyhalo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted February 9, 2021 Staff Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi m888, Glad you've fixed it - this is something we're aware of. I'll get your comments passed over and get it bumped with development. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredreg Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 The Bug with the mask no longer working correctly is also on MacOS - and I can't fix it with a different color mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you have a pure black color if you're in CMYK.

damdam Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I have the same problem since a while now. Using 100% black never fully erase the layer. I need to "paint" 2 layers on top of each other to mask 100%. Opacity and Flow are at 100%. This should not be related to the color mode. It's very frustrating...
