Grant's Tools -- Layer Mask

When I double click on Layer Mask (Grant's Tools), I get the message, "The command MAKE is not available."

What does this mean? The tool doesn't work? I'm doing something wrong?

Is there another way to do this?

Thanks, Jim

It means you are working on the base layers make a new layer and try it again.

Grant, Thank you. It worked. Now all I have to do is figure out how to use my new knowledge. Thanks, Jim

Click on the mask to select it then painting on your image in black creates a mask and painting on it in white erases the mask. While that sounds easy the results can be stunning.

Wow, individual instruction. What more can a guy ask for. Thanks again, Grant. I'm amazed at my own creativity:)
