rectangular mask prevents stamping

[marcus.fehse]

NOT new to photo2 but still there: i often use white (hex FFFFFF) rectangles to define the crop (or different crops) of an image.  this works pretty good with the export persona.  if you move or resize the rectangle the dimensions of the slice to export are updated like linked to the rectangle.  nice.  BUT ...

if i use a stamp to retouch the image on a pixel layer overlay (inside a group cropped by a rectangle) the stamp tool doesn’t work.  deactivating the white rectangle while retouching helps =;^)  well, i would expect the same behaviour like with a mask layer which does its job.  before being asked: white rectangles feel much better for cropping than mask layers.

Hi @marcus.fehse,

Thanks for your report!

I can confirm I have been able to replicate this behaviour here and it appears to be a bug in the apps, caused by the Group Layer.

If you remove the group and apply the same rectangle crop to both Pixel layers, the Clone Brush Tool works as expected - so I am logging this with our development team to be resolved now.

I hope this helps

dear @Dan C.

thanks for investigating and your workaround.  as i wrote: just deactivating the white rectangle while retouching is sufficient too.

best regards,

m.
