Expression based masks referensing other layers
Please make live mask with expressions something like layer2A*layer3R / layer4G referencing channels of other layers.
I am so tired with doing copies of smart objects and putting them in clipping groups that clipping another group with channel mixers smart object adjustments to extract red channels to be then put through Blend if with black becoming transparent . All this makes a hell of a layer stacks and hidden clipping groups I then couldn’t understand a thing within just next day .
No need for any nodes like in Nuke. Just make an expression driven layers with explicit layers access.
