Selecting and masking

Last updated 1/10/2010

Spot Color Converts an alpha channel to a spot color channel. Only available for existing channels.

Color Sets the color and opacity of the mask. Click the color field to change the color. The color and opacity settings

affect only the appearance of the mask and have no effect on how underlying areas are protected. Changing these

settings may make the mask more easily visible against the colors in the image.

Paint on a channel to mask image areas

When the new channel appears at the bottom of the Channels panel, it is the only channel visible in the image window.

Click the eye icon

for the composite color channel (RGB, CMYK) to display the image with a color overlay showing

the mask.

❖ Select the brush or an editing tool and do one of the following to add or subtract from the mask created from the

alpha channel:

• To remove areas in the new channel, paint with white.

• To add areas in the new channel, paint with black.

• To add or remove areas using opacities less than 100%, set the Opacity in the options bar of the painting or editing

tool and then paint with white or black. You can also paint with a color to achieve lower opacities.

Save and load selections

You can save any selection as a mask in a new or existing alpha channel and later reload the selection from the mask.

You can use a selection as a layer mask by loading the selection to make it active, then adding a new layer mask.
