Why Is My Transparent Layer Still Blocking Everything?

TLDR: i have two layers (A and B) and each has a mask. The masks dont even intersect but for whatever reason layer A is still blocking layer B that is  underneath

Your mask is set to "None".
some effects will disregard that mask and generate the image outside of the masked pixels. If this is the case, use a TRACK MATTE to clip the pixels instead.

Thanks for writing in and sharing the details.

I noticed your Mask is set to None. Try selecting Add in the drop-down.

Let us know how it goes.


Thanks,

I'm having a bit of trouble understanding what you're trying to do but would duplicating the layer with the mask and moving the duplicate over the streaks help?
