Inverted masks


Recommended Posts

Since upgrading to 1.9 I am finding that inverted masks no longer work, painting on and off a normal mask works OK, yet once inverted brushes seem to have no effect.  Running windows 10, and have even uninstalled 1.9 and downloaded again, yet still have the same issue.  Any suggestions how to resolve, it worked OK in previous versions.  In meantime I've now gone back to 1.8.5. in frustration.

I can confirm that with both AP versions.

Well, just tried it again, and now I can't replicate this.

How are you inverting the mask?

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

I've also recently installed 1.9.0.932 and my mask functionality isn't working at all - both inverted and non-inverted - I can't use the black or white paint function, it just does nothing to the image. I saw on a previous thread this was down to the 'Protect Alpha' being chosen, but it's not switched on with my session. 

I've created the mask by the Layer menu and the Mask icon but both suffer from the same problem.

Hi all,

Sorry for the delayed reply. 

I can't replicate this either. Regardless, can you all try this in the latest beta?

Also apologies from me for the delayed response.  Yes, the masks and inverted masks work in the beta version.
