dmstraker Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'm now tinkering with converting a mask to a selection. Here's progress: Turn mask into pixel layer. Channels panel, right-click Mask Alpha then click Create Greyscale Layer. (thanks, MEB) Select/Select Sampled Colour. Click on white. Tolerance 100%. Selection created, so delete pixel layer created in 1. I took an image, selected and refined an area (to get a good feathering). Cut and paste to create reference layer. Use above to recreate selection. Cut and paste again, then compare the before-and-after cut/pasted selection layers. Looks identical, even at the feathered edges. Any improvements on this?

Have you tried selecting the mask layer & then Select menu > Selection from Layer? Or CMD-clicking (or the Windows equivalent) on the mask layer in the layers panel?
