Mask selection is not showing on premiere 2026 bug

TEST IN PROJECTS

In the video linked I try to show when this bug happens and when not it seems to me that is something to do with the masks folders there created or with the new rotoscopie system. I’ve tested previously the ruler and box out preview but it dind’t solve either. Premiere is updated 26.0.1.

    ​@ANDERSON LIMA38851806y8dv are you using a single monitor or an external display? 
    Does the issue occur on initial launch or only after switching between open sequences of projects? Is there any chance you can try the same project on a different system? Maybe we can determine that is is specific to your current configuration?

    I am using 2 monitors but it not affect this bug at least for what I tried. The problem occours after I try using masks in some projetcs, cannot specify but in some projects happens after a while after using the rotorbrush and in some cases it dind’t happen at the firsts uses of the mask. I will try in other system and bring back the results.

    When you say “after using the rotobrush” are you referring to After Effects or the new Object Mask tool in Premiere?

    Are there any updates to this? I have created a circle mask, moved to opacity but the software is bugging out since I can’t see the mask, it’s no where to be found, I have to keep restarting the software to find it, then I try make another mask later and it disappears again. I only moved to adobe 2026 since after effects ‘26 wouldn’t work on Premiere 25… this is absolutely ridiculous

    Exactly same problem. For months now. So annoying! Every time I need to restart premier to get the mask back. Adobe keep on asking system info, but this seems to be happening with many people with many different systems. They should make an option to get the old mask back. This new mask is just not working.
