When I make a selection in Photo, then select "Toggle 'Edit Selection As Layer'" in the selection menu in order to edit the selection as a mask with the brush tool, I keep running into this problem even after restarting the app and restarting the iPad: when I select white it works fine, adding to the selected area, but when I select black (either from the color studio or from the context dependent brush tool menu on the top) it acts as if I have no tool. It doesn't do anything at all, certainly doesn't remove any of the selected area. I tried fiddling with the "Protect Alpha" to no avail... any insight?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Sorry to hear about your issue.

I tried on my iPad and there it works. Can you create a screen recording showing the issue?
please activate „show touches“.

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

There is one possible cause: you may have changed the brush blend mode.

  • while the brush tool is active, click on the brush thumbnail (between selection menu and alpha)
  • check if the blend mode is set to normal. If not, set to normal, and close window.
