P: Select Subject - Subtract Object - Opens new window

I want to report an apparent bug. I am using an M1 chip Mac Mini with Monterey 12.6 OS and Lightroom 12.

Using the masking tool, having selected a Subject and then going to subtract an Object from the section, as soon as the cursor crosses from the menu to the picture window, the Mac automatically opens a new Mac Desktop window, it won't let you remove an object. 

It is not a feature I would use often and I was merely trying it as an option but the same does not happen if subtracting the same object using a brush. Easily worked around but no doubt a bug nevertheless.

    I have the same issue with the Object mask. It works as long as it is not in full screen mode. Does work in partial screen mode. I mentioned the Mask Panel not showing as a separate issue but now I see this is related. When in Full screen mode the Mask Panel does not appear when I open Masks. But, if I go to partial screen mode, the Mask Panel appears as it should. Oddly, if I then go back to Full screen mode, the Mask Panel appears as it should. Go figure.

    Thanks @davidh48899348 .

    We are aware of this issue and is being tracked by the same bug that @C.Cella has reported.

    For now, the workaround is not to use fullscreen mode(just for Objects)

      MacBook Pro 2022 with Ventura OS here. Same problem, but it has started switching windows when I try to select using a new mask with object selection. Happened both with just the object mask and with other masks (and subtract/add). Seems to work again after quitting and restarting LRC.

      You can use Objects but must not use Full Screen mode as the bug happens only in full screen mode.
