Layer alpha channel promote to mask?


Recommended Posts

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

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. 

Please note -

I am currently out of the office for a short while whilst recovering from surgery (nothing serious!), therefore will not be available on the Forums during this time.

Should you require a response from the team in a thread I have previously replied in - please Create a New Thread and our team will be sure to reply as soon as possible.

Many thanks!
