I am struggling with an action that won’t copy a selection to the Layer Mask. Instead it generates a new layer with the selection. Is this a bug?
The relevant section of the action looks like this:
Set Selection
To: All
———————-
Copy
———————-
Make
New: channel
At: mask channel
Using reveal selection
———————-
Show current channel
———————-
Select current channel
———————-
Paste
Anti-alias: none
Recording the action adds "Select current channel" when I select the layer mask under the channels tab. That can’t be right because it doesn’t specify ‘layer mask’. Can anybody confirm this is a bug, or at the very least an oversight in the part of the programmers?
Anybody have a work around? This action is very long and tedious to do by hand. It would be a huge time saver if I could get it to work.
I should mention I’m running Photoshop 7.0.
Thanks,
Kevin
