Masks

Sorry, me again 😂. I must sound like a frustrated client, but the opposite is the case. I’m super happy with Macro Studio, but seeing how much you care about feedback, I might go overboard with all those feature requests 😂.

However, here’s some more:
To almost fully replace Lightroom, or photoshop, I feel the MASKS section would need some fine-tuning. Here’s what I’m “missing”

• inverting masks

  especially the radial gradient mask is a great tool to darken the background around your subject to draw the attention to your subject.

  I know you could basically do the same by reducing exposure on the full image and then raising it for the mask, but for people who are used to their workflow, that’s another train of thoughts.

• having multiple masks of each type

  It seems I can only have one radial gradient and one linear gradient. I’m used to having as much as I want.

  Not that I need all that many for macro photography, but I think two - one for the eye and one for the subject might be helpful at times.

• Consider subtracting/adding/intersecting masks. Again, I don’t see nearly as much need for that in macro, than in other areas of photography, but maybe others think different.

• If you allow multiple masks, consider giving the option to name them

Just some food for thought in case you ever get bored 😂
