decimate555 Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Hello, When option-clicking on the mask thumbnail on the layers palette, it takes you to the black and white mask view mode, however this same action again does not toggle you back to normal view, why is that? To return to normal view presently, I have to use the "escape" key to get back where I was, two different key actions to simply switch views back and forth is a bit of an interruption for working more swiftly. As shown in attachment. Thank you anon1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey decimate555. No need to use the ESC key. Just click on the mask icon (without the option key) and all will return.

anon1 Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 What I just thought is that it would be nice if you could shift select a bunch of layers and then do the "alt click" on them to view say 5 layers separately out of 20 (for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Andy Somerfield Posted June 28, 2015 Staff Share Posted June 28, 2015 MBd, That's a resonable suggestion - we'll improve the soloing capability after release but it was important to get it working in the way it does before release because the feature is so important. Thanks, Andy. anon1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decimate555 Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Thanks MelG… Somehow I overlooked the fact the mask thumbnail can simply be clicked on to return to the normal view, very good to know! But as mentioned on my original post, the toggle would be still an expected behavior for a user holding down option-click on the mask thumb, as the option-click key on the thumbnail doesn't have an existing function when in masked view mode it couldn't hurt to implement it anyway? anon1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
