How to do block mask?

Software darktable

DT 4.0.1

How can I draw a draw a mask that is straight to cover a square?

I use the “add path”, but I can’t get the straight lines and the 90 deg angle.

Is there any video that shows how to do that? or is there a better way?

Thanks

Ctrl or shift ctr when you create the points I believe…its in the manual

EDIT

Always look for tips on these sorts of things at the top of the screen… also holding the h key down will always provide a complete list of key strokes

Hi, you should use ctrl+click to create sharp lines.
After a shape has been created you can switch between sharp and smooth lines with ctr+click in the nodes.

Check this section of the manual: available-shapes

Thank you, fixed!

The problem was the connection between the ears. I was trying by control + double click.
