Please clarify. On Lightroom Classic, you do not need to click anything to apply the edits. Only on the mobile app do you have to click the check mark. What do you mean by click "done"?

Hi everyone thanks for your help, I seem to have sorted out my issue, I think that I was just cofusing things and with your help and persistance I have it sorted.

Thanks again this is the first time I have used this forum and the help has been great. I have another question that I will post in more detail soon and it relates to classic being unavailable once I have spent considerable time out of internet access.

Are you confusing/conflating the mask overlay with mask edits?

Explain in a bit more detail what you try to do. The mask itself is just a means to apply edits to only a part of the image. So if you create a mask and do not make any adjustments with the sliders, then you won't see anything happening when you press 'Done'.
