Black brush on the layer mask works not. Please help.

I have been using CS6 for some time now.  6 CS decided that I can't use my black brush on a white layer mask. Not at all. I can use that white on a black mask, but not black I.  I restarted the computer, but I'm annoyed. Anyone have this problem?  Solutions?  I'm so over my head with photos at the end... It would be my great weekend to night work.

Look at the Options bar. Is the brush in Normal blending mode?

  • Black brush on the layer mask issues

    After a year working properly for the dark years of painting in normal mode does not have 100% opacity on a layer mask with the opacity and flow pegged at 100%.  White paint works very well.  Paint with black to multiply mode get to 100% after several passes. Reset the brushes - no help. Disabled the graphics processor - no help. Started with a new file photos and added a few layers and masks - has not always worked.  Any ideas?  I think that I am the victim of an update of Windows 7.  I'm running in 64-bit. Thanks in advance

    Sounds like time to reset the preferences.  What version of Photoshop?

  • White color on the layer mask does not

    Well, I have a problem... Each setting is fine, but when I open the layer mask on a layer, and if I have the black brush, it works very well, BUT if I brush white, it does not work. It's like the color white is on 0% opacity. It shows me an action in "history, but it's like I'm not even brushing."
    Now, when I want white brush, I switched layer mask, brush black and then I reverse again, because as I said, the white color just doesn't work...
    -Colours btw, work not in a layer mask

    Is the Mode in the Options bar to brush on something other than normal?

  • Help! White paint or brush tool on layer mask work suddenly

    I worked with almost all the versions on Photoshop for many years.  Not an expert but with continued several years of experience.  All of a sudden, something happened which led to my being more able to work with pictures in PS5 until it is resolved...

    PS5 / Windows 7 / 64-bit

    As long as photographer frame of my work with images more often is to work in layers.  Create a duplicate layer.  Changes to this layer.  Add the layer mask to this layer.  Use the tool brush to paint in which changes to the duplicate layer will be exposed and see what parts of the lower layer.

    To do this the black square on the toolbar is on top for "paint"and let the lower layer to be seen.»  The oppisite white color square is used on top to cover a lower layer so that the top layer is observed.

    All of a sudden, I guess I touched or pressed something I don't have, I can no longer use the white or cover the tip of the tool.  Once I expose all or part of the bottom layer, I'm not able to re - cover all or part of this layer again.  When I go to strictly colors 'paint', I can now also no longer to paint with white color.  All other colors works but not white.

    Thanks in advance because I'm totally oyut business until it is resolved.

    Please check that it has not corrected the problem.  A multiply by White yields without change, which explains exactly what you saw.

    Also make sure that you have not a selection, because you won't be able to paint outside a selection.

    Hello world

  • Why apply the layer mask is grayed out?

    Hello

    From time to time 'apply the layer mask' is not available.

    What I checked myself:

    -Photoshop is not in master view (abbreviation Q).

    -J' have reset all warning dialog boxes (since it is a way to get a mask by dragging it to the trash).

    Can't get to work!

    Other solutions? Thank you!

    I found myself - the layer was a dynamic object. Perhaps I should suggest Adobe to let Photoshop ask pixelation during application, instead of just greyin'out.

  • Change the layer mask: Alt + Shift + click does not work?

    I have PES 9 w/Mac OS X.  According to Adobe using for layer masks, "to display the mask in a mask color red, hold down the Alt + Shift and click on the thumbnail of the layer mask".  It is also stated by Missing Manual for elements.  I can't get this to work and can display the mask only in itself (in black and white).  I have uninstalled/reinstalled without success.  In other words, when I change the mask, I don't see where I'm editing.  Can someone help me?

    Exit the editor, then go in your username > library > Preferences and delete:

    Repair permissions, and then try again.

  • Paste an image into a layer mask does not work even after several approaches

    I can't paste an image into a layer mask. I tried to keep 'option' by clicking on the layer mask (to activate the white), then "Control + V" to paste the image but it still places the image in a new layer. I tried to paste through the Palette layers without success (pasta in a new layer). I tried to use past special from the Edit menu, but the past command is grayed out. Any ideas for why it does not work for me?

  • Paint on layer masks does not work?

    Hi, I'm working on a work of Digital Art classes... Deadline tomorrow, I left it quite late because I knew what to do, and he was out in my head on how to do it. And behold, I encountered a problem with paint on a layer mask.

    I did a form (Magenta, so I know I paint on the correct layer) and have selected layer mask, but when I try to paint black on it to give it a bit of shading is as if she is wiping out so I can see the layer behind it, even though I see that it is indeed drawing anywhere in the mask layer in the layers panel anyway?

    Until something happens, I'll just go try and find an alternative

    Any help is appreciated!

    Painting on the layer mask with black going to 'clear' of the image.  That's the whole point of a layer mask.  If you want to shade it (non-distructively) then create a new layer above that layer and hang it on her, pressing alt/opt clicking on between the layers in the layer panel.  Then you can paint black on the new layer, and it will be displayed only when the lower layer's pixels.  You can then change it without messing up the base layer.

  • CC 2015 Photoshop layer mask does not?

    I've recently updated to CC in Photoshop, but I have problems with layer masks, I created the mask layer, and when I paint with my black brush, it does not block the area completely, it will leave the remains of the image essentially, it leaves an opaque shape. I check that my brush is set to normal and my layer is set to normal. I have reset the brushes, I tried implementing new photoshop documents, but it makes no difference. Can anyone help please see the example below, the Red is a layer below the layer of the image that has applied the layer mask.

  • Opacity of the layer mask Photoshop in AE

    I have a series of PSD files each with a layer mask with a default opacity of 100%. PS, I change the 'density' of the layer of about 15% in order to achieve the desired result. Either way, the layer mask is also an inactive Alpha channel.

    My question is that when I include the series of the PSD AE as-is, the layer mask is available as a black. It doesn't seem to be a way adjust the density of the mask as in Photoshop. I tried to use an alpha channel and track matte, but no luck. The main PSD file has the default active layer apparently mask with no way to change it.

    Maybe I'll have to put in place an action on PSD files?

    Thank you.

    AE is not layer masks as separate channels, it uses only the calculated pixel opacity. Simply, you cannot use this method. Rasterize your stuff to separate the layers.
