Usually, in previous versions, if I had two vector masks that I needed to apply to a layer (one layer with multiple masks), I would: Select layer that needs vector maskSelect proper mask in paths paletteCommand-click "Add Layer Mask" icon at bottom of layers p (this applies mask to chosen layer)Select second mask in paths paletteWith arrow tool, select second mask to apply to layer and copy itGo to layer's vector maskSelect first mask that was already appliedPaste (this applies second mask without replacing existing mask)In 2020, this doesn't work. Instead of working as expected, I just get some pasted clipboard content (usually a layer or some pixel data) when I perform step 7. Any ideas?Thanks

Usually, in previous versions, if I had two vector masks that I needed to apply to a layer (one layer with multiple masks), I would:

Select layer that needs vector mask
Select proper mask in paths palette
Command-click "Add Layer Mask" icon at bottom of layers p (this applies mask to chosen layer)
Select second mask in paths palette
With arrow tool, select second mask to apply to layer and copy it
Go to layer's vector mask
Select first mask that was already applied
Paste (this applies second mask without replacing existing mask)

In 2020, this doesn't work. Instead of working as expected, I just get some pasted clipboard content (usually a layer or some pixel data) when I perform step 7.

Any ideas?

Thanks
