Elsewhere on the forum, it was reported that a layer mask (linked or unlinked) on a shape layer will NOT transform with the shape. For example, when rotating or resizing the vector shape with the Free Transform handles, the layer mask pixels will not correspondingly rotate or resize… they remain unaffected by the transformation.
But this isn’t true, is it? It’s ONLY true if the shape’s PATH IS SELECTED. If I deselect the path (by clicking on its VECTOR mask) but keep the shape layer active, then transform, the shape and mask will both respond to the adjustment, right?
(Just making sure I’m understanding what I’ve just discovered in an image I’m working on. Thanks.)
