Photo 2.3.1: Merge mask layers?


Recommended Posts

Is is possible to merge these mask layers into one? It's the result of several mask processes and I'd just like to combine them to ease the work from here on.

I've tried merge down, merge visible. Nothing happens. Not interested in Compound mask in this case.

Oddly, I'd expect at least grouping them first + then either "Rasterize To Mask" would work …

… or "Mask to Below", but both don't.

Edit -> Copy Merged (...then a paste) also doesn't work for just masks alone here.

Make a new Spare Channel from the Channels panel's Alpha channel. Make a new mask, select it and apply the Spare channel to it. Or you could apply it to one of the existing Masks.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
