Masks and Tracking

  1. Shapes Panel

  2. Invert parent mask (Inside/Outside)

  3. Tracking Controls

  4. Image Mask

The key to achieving complex grades is a sophisticated masking system Color Finale 2 includes shape, gradient, and image masks. You can apply grades inside and outside of these masks. Shape masks can also be tracked with a built-in area tracker. To apply a mask, select a layer and click the Mask button at the bottom of the panel. This applies a Mask icon to that layer. Click on that icon to enter or exit the mask controls.

Publish mask

To use this feature, after adding and creating or generating a mask, right click on the layer or group and select ‘Publish Mask’.

Once the mask is published you can decide whether you want a cutout or just the mask itself. Find the options in the inspector.
