Double-click Mask Tool Issue
Hello All,
I’m having trouble adding a mask to my solid by double clicking the mask/shape tool in CS3. Normally this works but all of a sudden it doesn’t. Does anyone know why this might be?Thanks!

The solid is locked, or maybe deselected? Or, if the reactangular mask tool is selected, maybe the mask is being created, you just can’t see it because it is lined up with the edges?
Can’t think what else it might be…

Hey Simon,
Unfortunately I looked at all that and the layer is selected, unlocked and I was using the ellipse tool; though I tried the rectangle tool just to make sure. Its very confusing especially since it worked just fine a few days ago. Could there be a preference or a switch somewhere that I’m not seeing?Thank you for your response

Apologies Doug, I’ve not experienced that myself and can’t think what it might be.

Jut to re-animate a long dead thread.
I had the same problem today. Switching WORKSPACES and then back again seemed to solve it

I can confirm that Jamie McGee is correct. What a frustrating mess AE can sometimes be. The amount of stumbling around in the dark to figure this one out…ugh.
