Ray Bonilla Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hello Everyone, I really love the new affitnity photo but I had a layer masks question. In photoshop I paint back and forth when using masks to get nice subtle effects in my images. I do this by selecting the eye ripper tool . In photoshop , when I use the eye dropper tool on a selected layer mask, it samples the mask itself ( and gives me the black and white value that is in the mask ) .When I try to do that in affinity photo, it samples the main image instead of the layer mask itself which means if i ever wanted to paint back into a mask at a later date, I’d have to remember the grey value ( or guess ) that I previously used so that I can get the same amount of transparency that i had previously painted with. Is their any way around this? Am I doing something wrong ? Thanks for your help Felipe Adan Lerma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Leigh Posted November 23, 2017 Staff Share Posted November 23, 2017 Welcome to the forum Ray Bonilla It's not currently possible, sorry. Another user has requested the same feature here - hopefully this functionality will be added in the future. Ray Bonilla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Bonilla Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 Thanks Leigh! I really hope to see that functionality in the future as well. It’s really one of the few things left that require me to use photoshop for my workflow. Have a good holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
