It would be fabulous if Pixelmator Pro had additional options for enabling the visibility of mask overlays during the process of painting on a mask layer. The only way I have found to see a mask overlay in this situation is using "Refine Mask." However, in this mode, in version 2.4, the brush options are limited. Also, the mask overlay can not be toggled on and off. Ideally, for me, would be the ability to toggle the visibility of the mask overlay in the "normal" mode of painting on a mask. When the mask overlay was visible, it would update in real time as you painted on it.

I agree. You should be able to Option Click on a mask layer to open the mask for painting. Or, something like that.

Hi everyone, I'm afraid we don't have any plans to implement a conventional Mask overlay at the moment, but I've added your +1s to this feature request - we'll look into it in the future. :pray:
