Turn masking on and off for a huge bunch of layers
Posted: Sat Dec 16, 2006 6:04 am
I find that having masking turned ON by default with new layers isn't my cup of tea. I always end up with a bazillion layers I need to turn masking off (or on) on all of them except... 2 or 3.
9 times out of 10 I have to turn the masking OFF.
So now, I use a text editor and change the following with a global search and replace:
to
I may have some masking set up in sub layers... but it is easier to change one or two after the fix than to edit 20 layers before.
Usually when I need to do this I don't have any masking set up yet anyhow... I would like to start with all layers set to "don't mask this layer" but I always forget to do that as I go along.
