Temporarily showing layer mask

[smadell]

@DarkClown - The macros will not work with the embedded masks in Adjustment or Live Filter layers. But, if you are willing to create a separate mask layer (as a child of the filter or adjustment) they should work as expected.

Thanks @Wosven ... but it seems this only works for layer masks - not for filter masks ... ?!

You may convert embedded masks to explicit mask in 2 steps (can be recorded as macro):

• "mask from channel" (channels panel, layer Alpha channel)
• Fill embedded mask Edit>Fill (custom color, or primary color if it's white), or use a prepared spare channel (pure white), and "Load to <Layer Type> Alpha".

@smadell,

Can you please explain how I can create a child layer for a live filter or adjustment layer? And how are these child layers represented in the Layer panel?

Thanks.

Kind regards.
