Trouble with a mask
Hi everyone!!
I’m having a little problem with a mask, and I would like to know why it’s happening.
I basically have a .psd layer, in a comp, motion blur enabled, 2D, liked to a null. When I want to draw a mask with the pen tool, once I set the first vertex, when I set the second one, AE automatically closes the path. I can add vertex after this, but I cannot find how to draw the mask with a free form.
If I try to draw a free mask on another comp, I don’t have any problem.I think I’m missing something stupid, but I cannot seem to find what.
Thanks so much for the help! H

What is your exact version number of AE?
What happens if you try to make a mask on a new layer?
What about if you reboot your machine, start a brand new project, brand new composition, new solid layer, and apply a mask?– The Great Szalam

Hi Michael!
After Effects CS6 v.11
If I make a mask on a new layer, in the same comp, I have the same problem.
If I make a mask in any layer in other comps, no problem.PC rebooted, new project, new comp, new solid, new mask, no problem.
The problem is with THAT proyect, and THAT COMP, but I don’t know why. That’s why I was thinking in something that can be enabled/dissabled, but I didn’t find anything. =/
Have a great day!
