Question

radial gradient mask shape controls not working

After some time of use (let's say roughly after one hour of continuative use) when I apply a radial gradient mask it's shape controls (size, orientation) and red overlay doesn't work, so I can't move or reshape the mask... for some time deselecting the mask and then selecting it again, or moving the mouse out of the photo area, improve a little bit, but after some other minuts I have to restart Lr to get it working again.

Hi @biemmezeta! 👋 Welcome to the community!

That's odd! Do you remember when this behavior started? Was it after a recent update to Lightroom or your operating system? Is the radial gradient mask the only thing affected? Could you also share your System Info? You can find it in Lightroom under Help > System Info. Just copy the info to a text file and attach it to your response.

Thanks a bunch!

Best, Alek
