I was just wondering if anyone here has tried the new Photoshop 2015.5. If so have you experienced any difficulty with the new "Select and Mask Feature," TIA

I don't even know what that is. I mask complex shapes using channels. -

I just tried it with no problem at all. It's pretty slick. Make a selection, I use the Quick Selection Tool, go to Select/Select and Mask. The Refine Edge dialog will open. Chose you setting, and click OK. Nothing appears to happen, until you select an adjustment layer, then the selection you made creates a layer mask. Very nice for selective tone adjustments.Comment

here's one I haven't come across earlier..
When using quick mask, the area I mask is pale red, as if I had set opacity to 10% or so..

Checked all my settings, opacity is 100%, mode...07-13-2002, 07:21 AM -
I know how to paint in the Layer Mask to make a mask, but say I use the Lasso or Magic Wand or Color Range to make a selection. How can I transfer that to my Layer Mask?
I'm in PS 7.
