Hi,
I’ve this problem: I want separate layer mask and RGB pixels. When I create mask from the image, using Ctrl-clicked selection (= selection generated from image’s alpha channel), I get nice grayscale mask containing original alpha channel of image.
But – the image still contains its alpha channel, and when it’s combined with the mask, the transparent areas are even more transparent (alpha multiplication).
So what I’d like to do is killing the alpha in RGB part to of layer (setting to maximum = opaque), while retaining all RGB colors, and using only mask to specify transparency.
The problem is I can’t find a way how to write directly to alpha channel of layer (I don’t mean mask now), or just kill it.
Thanks for help!
