QUICK MASK PRO V.1.0.2 update released

Today, September 30th, 2022 we released a small update for Quick Mask Pro UXP called Quick Mask Pro UXP v.1.0.2. The update is available on the Adobe store and can be downloaded (free of charge for existing users of Quick Mask Pro for UXP) by opening up the Creative Cloud Desktop app > Stock & Marketplace > Plugin > Manage Plugins. You will see that Quick Mask Pro now shows the blue button with 'Update' instead of the grayed-out 'installed' message. Click on Update. When you open up PS you will see the latest version 1.0.2.

What has been updated:

• Incorrect channel names of the channels created when using the option Manual Object Detect have now been corrected. This also solved an internal inconsistency that earlier on resulted in less accurate masks in specific situations. Now the names have been corrected, the internal inconsistency is solved too and masks are more accurate in a variety of situations.

• We added a new feature in the Quick Access menu button called Paths. Due to the space available in the top menu section, we removed the existing Deselect button, since that already has a built-in shortcut in Adobe Photoshop. You can deselect a selection by hitting CMD+D (Mac) or Control + D (Windows). We found it more useful to add a new 'save as path' feature. The new Path feature will allow you to save a selection as a vector mask which can be very convenient in specific cases. E.g. You create a mask with QMP of a building. The mask of the building needs some correction. You can do that with the panel and depending on the type of correction with Advanced Refine Mask for example, but now you can also save that QMP mask as a path, then go to the paths tab, stand on it, and then use the direct selection features in Photoshop to correct the mask. The given example was deliberately one with a mask for a manmade structure as it makes more sense to use and adjust masks as vector masks when they are masks of geometric shapes. It is less recommended to save a mask as a path when the mask is that of hair, feathers, and other intricate details.
