Mark_A Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Create an adjustment or live filter layer, and it has an alpha channel - used to selectively modify the adjustment. Looking in the channels panel, the alpha channel is listed and has a thumbnail rendering of itself. Is there a way to promote that alpha channel to a mask that can then be duplicated and applied to other layers? Thanks Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Hi Mark_A If you right click on the filter layers alpha and select create mask layer, Affinity will create a new mask layer that contains the filters selective adjustment. This can then be nested within another filter, such that they have the same selective masking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark_A Posted October 17, 2018 Author Share Posted October 17, 2018 Ah! thanks for this. The four channels above it, with control-clicks, behave in a different way and had led me astray. I was then control-clicking on the adjustment alpha channel's icon and that's inert. I needed to click to the right of the icon.
