P: Vector Mask selection bug

Yeah, that's what I did. Thanks. I've reverted back to 2001 and I'm making path layers.

I chatted with an Adobe "tech" and it was painfully fruitless. He actually made me second guess myself and I thought I was nuts for a minute. He said, "If you disable the Vector Mask, you can no longer edit it". – That's when I left the chat.

It's a nuisance, but the workaround is to lower the mask density to 0 in the Properties panel, instead of disabling it in the Layers panel.

That's a pretty big oversight, if you ask me and frustrating as crap.

The issue where the vector mask can not be edited while it is deactivated has not be resolved in the latest Photoshop CC update 14.2.2.

Is it possible to have an update on the progress of this?

This issue has not been rectified in 14.2.1 update that was recently updated.
Very upset that this has still not been looked at, the only workaround is to use CS6.
Please update on the whereabouts of this fix.

I agree, I have the same problem on mac Using version Photoshop CC 14.2.1.

agree. When the Vector mask is temporarily disabled by pressing Shift - Click the Thumbnail (Mac), one can no longer see it or edit it. This is not intuitive. It worked much better in previous versions IMHO.

Using version Photoshop CC 14.2 on Mac even with the update this is still not working.Tried on latest Mavericks and Snow Leopard.

Which specific version are you using?
Have you installed the 14.2 update?
