Topic: Masking in Lightroom 12.1

I use lightroom 12.1, sometimes when maksing the subject the mask will extend beyond the subjed.  Is there a way of erasing this extension.

Sometimes when using the background masking it will miss a litte area is there a way of extening the mask to htose missed areas.

You can use the subtract function to have a new mask (perhaps a brush) subtracted from the original mask. Similarly, you can add another mask (perhaps a brush) to the original mask. Also, you should upgrade to LrC 12.3

    Typically, the issue you describe is due to outdated or  buggy GPU driver. Please post a copy of your 'System Info'. This can be obtained from the LrC Help > System Info menu item as shown in attached screenshot.
