Thanks a lot for these tips, Dylan. Very helpful!
One question: With launch of ON1 Photo RAW 2026 the Masking Properties Dialog not only shows the mask created. Instead of one pictogram there 2 sections now: Target Mask und Mask Layers. Can the difference and interaction of these two masking sections be explained , e.g. in a separate video, please?
I sometimes end up with adding a new mask layer which is not applied to the image for example.
