Mask Paint [PnM]

Image:Icon_Mask_Paint.png

The Mask Paint tool allows direct painting on mask images, using the mouse pointer as if it were a paintbrush. In addition to regular paint strokes, it is possible to apply basic primitive shapes and polyline style strokes.

Each stroke can have a duration that lasts for the entire project, a single frame or field, or an arbitrary number of fields. The strokes can have independent durations in the timeline for easy manipulation of time. Alternatively, Fusion 5.1 offers Multistrokes, a faster but non-editable way for doing many mask cleanup paint tasks.

Many of the controls found in this mask tool are common to all mask tools. These controls are documented at Common Mask Controls.

As the Paint Mask tool is fundamentally identical to the Paint tool, see the Paint tool and the Paint and Rotoscoping chapter for more details on the many options and capabilities available. The only difference is that, as Paint Mask operates on single-channel mask images, there is no channel selector control and all color controls have only a single Alpha value.
