I tried: 1 - Open a convenient image, add layer mask (full opacity). 2 - Switch to the layer mask and paint away. (works as expected) 3 - Add a new layer (transparent) and paint some strokes 4 - Add a layer mask (full opacity) to the second layer. 5 - Switch to the layer mask and paint away. (still works as expected) Remember that adding a new layer mask doesn't automatically switch to it for editing - you must do that yourself. From what you describe, it sounds like you're actually editing the first layer mask (the flower layer) instead of the second (the white stroke layer). -- Stratadrake strata_ranger hotmail com -------------------- Numbers may not lie, but neither do they tell the whole truth. |
