MASK Features/Editing Tools we need to see in Aurora
1) I would really like to have a set of tools or editing capability (like lasso) where I can identify specifc objects I want to mask (have them automatically out lined), click a button and have them filled in automatically to make a mask. I'm tired of spending hours with the brush tool to mask in complex objects. The brush tool is not accurate and using the brush tool can lead to unwanted artifacts like halos if you're not very careful. AI advancements in recent years should be able to support a tool that does this.
2) I would like to be able to copy multiple masks to a layer to combine them. Right now you can only copy a single mask to another layer but you can't copy more than one and combine them. We can discuss these tools further Skylum team, just contact me directly.
I'd also like others in the forum to weigh in with comments on how to improve masking and if they agree with this line of thinking and the development of mask editing tools.

Hi Michael. I am sorry for a delayed response. Please check our reply to your post here.

Just to add my 2c here; Michael is absolutely right in that the existing masking tools are painful to use. I'd love to see a lasso tool (or even just a polygon thing). I have asked separately for a "flood fill" type thing, because that'd be (I think) relatively easy to implement, but that doesn't detract from the need for things asked for in this post.

I agree - 100% as well and commented on the other post. For professionals advanced masking is a necessity not a "nice to have" - I brought this up well over a year ago to Skylum and got no response. I hope we get something back since more people are vocalizing as opposed to just using different software which is what is happening now I fear..
