To add …
A mask (layer) with the blackish square is the master
- where you deactivate/activate the whole stack of its corresponding sublayers
- and/or adjust the whole stack’s opacity
Individual areas can now be selected (or subtracted/deselected) via the corresponding sublayers
- but they all receive the same adjustments
(= common for the whole stack) - whereas you can adjust each sublayer’s opacity independently
with the according opactity slider (= individual property).
That is …
- the mask overlay is shown for all activated masks
- but to see the overlay for single sublayers,
you only have the master and those sublayers active
. - If other settings are required, create a new master mask w/ sublayers.
I do hope DxO can figure out the inconsistencies with the (general) mask overlay as shown here …
