Can you please show us what you are doing, by sending a picture of the feather situation, or (even better) a small screen recording of the steps you take. So that we can replay what you do and give feedback?

Quote Hi, as I upgraded mine to PD 19, I started experiencing masking issues. For example, if I increase the feather radius, mask gets twrown out of focus completely. Previously, it would just blur the edges but now applying masks became impossible.

Please, help

Are these masks from previous projects imported into PD or does this occur when creating the mask from scratch?

New masks, will send the video in a while

I've seen the issue and when I was making a screen recording it disappeared. Try this: When you first open the Pask Designer, place the first rectangular mask like this:



Then place another mask, and when you adjust the feathering it will only affect the inner edges of the second mask instead of affecting the outside edges of the frame.

On my test system, I didn't even save these changes and yet it works normally now and I can't get the original issue to appear. You may also need to turn of OpenCL under hardware Acceleration, but once the mask is working as expected it doesn't seem to matter if that's enabled or not.

Thank you for your detailed reply. It happens when I do a custom brush mask. I will try to add some videos or screen shots to show
