Mask Layers (Affinity Photo) (Updated)

[@xzenor-art]

No matter how basic a tutorial, I always learn something. I never noticed the "Refine mask" option! I had been stumbling around with loading it as a selection, then refining the selection and painting or filling in that selection again on the mask.. I could've saved myself so much time😂

I always learn something, so many times I am making something hard on myself, just because I overlooked or didint know about a feature... Thank You.

Great video, just to add Alt clicking the new mask will also create a blank mask, no need to right click the mask icon on windows 👍

Nice one James…. Much appreciated

Thank you ! Videos like this is what's needed!!!

Thank you but how do you see the image below after you've clicked the Alt/Opt on the mask? In other words, how do we get that red mask to appear as we do in the refine tool....or is that how to do it...only through the refine tool?

I've been searching how to unlink a mask from the layer in order for the mask to stay static while I move the layer independently

Very usefull. Maybe you have already answered this question but would it be possible to join the pictures you use in your video description so we can follow along. Tks.

Thanks for the Tutorial.

Great tutorial, does Affinity Photo have a Smart Auto Blend feature like the one in Photoshop?

[@lindahudspeth8006]

Great info, thanks, but I’m not sure how you masked out the wolf from the background. Is there a tutorial on this?

[@jefwizz8932]

Great soft !

Repeated content 🙇🏻‍♂️

Yes, both the video title and description explain that this is an updated video to include the changed modifier behaviour when accessing the additional mask options...
