Mask Manager (Mask Properties)

I do not appear to be seeing the properties of the individual masks … what am I missing?

It’s at the bottom of the Mask Manager module for me. Can you post a screenshot?

Remind me can you change the outline color… I find this one really hard to see in landscapes with lots of green foliage… I can see when you hover it lights up but before that it can be hard to locate or visualize now with the finer less bright mask outline…

Edit…found it …setting it to gray is better for me than green or yellow…

I have some weird behaviour…I will update to latest and test… is the ctrl scroll on individual elements changed?? doesn’t seem to be working for me…showing 0% opacity but clearly applying an exposure effect and ctrl scrolling is not altering the shape opacity… I will confirm and if it seems off I will put in a bug report…

Edit

This is what I see not sure if this is a bug or intended… it why I made the comment above I had set the focus on the shape outside the group it was part of.

So in the mask manager the drawn elements are grouped and there is also a running list of all the shapes below. Clicking on any mask in its group list brings up all the sliders and you can change the shapes with them or using the mouse on screen. However, if you happen to click on a shape outside its group you can adjust all the properties with the scroll wheel and drag it except opacity which is also incorrectly shown as 0%. When you move or edit a shape from that list the focus jumps to the entry for that shape in its its group but still reports 0% opacity and you still cannot cannot change it and there is no slider. You have to click on the focused shape entry in the group list and then you can access opacity either in the mask manager or on the display with the scroll wheel as before. I seems strange this only happens for opacity and not size and feather so I think it might be a bug?? I will try to show it in the video… two module exposure and local contrast two sets of drawn masks… will try to show the opacity issue… when it shows )% at the top then scrolling with ctrl is not working…

No, not the properties at the bottom … I can not find the binary options for individual paths.
I am running the current git on Arch

You can use the same shape in several modules and set its opacity to different values for each. So if you select the shape outside a group, it is unclear which opacity you want to change. (yes, if it is only used in one group, it could figure it out, but this hasn’t been implemented). As far as I know it has always been like this.

Thanks I wondered if there was just a flow to things i was missing…

When you right click on the shape??
