When I create a mask,  it opens its layer tree automatically in 1.9.
in 1.8, it wasn't so.

Steps to reproduce:
Quick Mask > click Layer Mask button of  the Layer Panel.

I use iPad screenshots and videos even in the Desktop section of the forum when I expect no relevant difference.

Hi @ashf, this isn't a bug but rather the Windows behaviour is now consistent with Mac. Adding an enclosure layer should, by default, expand the parent layer so you can see the layer you have just added. If you prefer not to have this behaviour you can go to Edit>Preferences>User Interface and disable the option "Auto-scroll to show selection in Layers panel".

Hope that helps!

Ah, so "Auto-scroll to show selection in Layers panel" wasn't available on Windows til 1.9.
Didn't notice  it.(even though I have both platform)

I believe it was just called "Show Selection in Layers Panel" in 1.8.5 - seems to do the same thing as regards "opening the layer tree automatically"

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.

It seems that it was off by default in 1.8.
Changed to on by default in 1.9.
