There was a time when I could see, at the bottom of Layers tab, icons for opening a new layer etc. I can't see them now! Is this a setting I may accidentally changed?

If voting made any difference it wouldn't be allowed!

To the best of my knowledge, that is the default layout and isn't a "setting" the user can control. They're always there for me.

First, I'd try resetting the Studio (Window > Studio > Reset Studio). 

If that doesn't work, I'd try a program 'reset'. I'd close all apps and reboot my computer first for a clean start. Then restart your Affinity App and then immediately hold down the Control Key until the reset window appears. Set the options you want to reset, and see if that works. Warning, choose carefully as you may lose some custom settings, if you've created any, so I'd backup first.

These icons are located at the bottom of the Layers panel. If you don't see them, it's possible that they're hidden by another panel, or the Layers panel is extending off-screen (perhaps not docked).

I suspect that it is extended off screen. I'll reload the Layers tab and see if that works.

Per quanto ne so, questo è il layout predefinito e non è un'"impostazione" che l'utente può controllare. Sono sempre lì per me.

Per prima cosa, proverei a reimpostare Studio (Finestra > Studio > Reimposta Studio). 

Se non funziona, proverei un "reset" del programma. Chiuderei tutte le app e riavvierei prima il computer per un avvio pulito. Quindi riavvierei la tua Affinity App e poi terrò immediatamente premuto il tasto Ctrl finché non appare la finestra di reset. Imposta le opzioni che vuoi resettare e vedi se funziona. Attenzione, scegli con attenzione perché potresti perdere alcune impostazioni personalizzate, se ne hai create, quindi farei prima un backup. 

Anch'io ho lo stesso problema, ho provato con il reset ma continua a non funzionare; e non è neanche l'ancoraggio.

I reloaded the Layers tab and they were visible again. It was because the tab went below off the screen. All sorted now thanks.

Perdona la mia ignoranza, ma come si fa a ricaricare la scheda livelli?

 

Zavřít/otevřít - například pomocí menu Window, nebo zkusit Undock/Dock potáhnutím panelu za jeho titulek.

If you mean you can't add the Mask to a selected Layer, check in Settings > Assistant to see if "Adding mask layer to selection" is set to "Add mask based on selection" & not "Add mask as new layer."

What options are you missing/expecting?

OK. That does work in AP on my Mac. (I was at first testing in AD where there are no options.) Sorry for the confusion.

I use a translation add on for Safari. It usually works fairly well but this time if I select your entire reply it shows what I wrote but weirdly if I just translate the part after the comma it gets it right.

Maybe Safari doesn't like Google...

I wasn't using Google. I was using a Safari extension called "Polyglot."

Se intendi dire che non puoi aggiungere la maschera a un livello selezionato, controlla in Impostazioni > Assistente per vedere se "Aggiunta livello maschera alla selezione" è impostato su "Aggiungi maschera in base alla selezione" e non su "Aggiungi maschera come nuovo livello".

E' impostato su "aggiungi maschera in base alla selezione". Per ora risolvo premendo Alt (su mac) mi appare la tendina con la scelta delle maschere.

Grazie dei suggerimenti
