Masks

Is it possible to transfer masks created in Photoshop to PTGui?

[PTGui Support]

Hi,

PTGui can import masks from other applications. It expects a .png image
consisting of 3 colors: black (rgb 0,0,0), green (rgb 0,255,0) and red
(rgb 255,0,0). The mask should habe the same size as the source image.
You can import it using the Load Mask button (below the image in the
Mask tab).

With some effort it's probably possible to convert a Photoshop mask into
this format.

Kind regards,

Ok thanks, I will give it a try.

Ok gave it a try and it works 100%

Just to clarify for others. 
The red in the PNG will be the areas masked in PTGui.
The green in the PNG will be areas that must be kept.

The black areas are where PTGui will decide what to keep from the specific photo.

NB the PNG file must be 8-bit
