In the spirit of Affinity doing everything live, it would be awesome if we could use the selection modification tools while viewing in quick mask mode so we can see exactly the effect live.

As it is now, I have to try something, view it in quick mask, then undo retry again, view in quick mask, undo retry etc. It would be very helpful for viewing feathering effect as well as using along with 'Select Sampled Color'

Being able to see in realtime the effect of all the selection modification tools in quick mask mode. They are all currently disabled or either they don't update while viewing in quick mask.

Take 'select sampled color' as the best example because it is the hardest to use. You can toggle quick mask while the tolerance slider is visible, but it will not update until you click 'apply'. If it is not the result you want, you have to start over.

Only way is that you can add or subtract with the selection brush live in the quickmaskmode.
 

No, that is not a way. It is not a work around. It doesn't do the same thing. There is a reason I created the feature request.

If you want to alter the selection you would need to use a selectiontool again.

Yes, this was the very reason for the enhancement request as it would be a significant productivity enhancement to be able to preview live.
