There was a mask here. Where is it now?

 

    Correct answer Paul_Gringo

    The problem was solved in a strange way. I wanted to find out which folder or file was responsible for the mask settings. I deleted all the files located in the root of this folder: Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\26.0\ 
    But I left the Settings folder and other folders alone. When I launched the program, the files from the OneDrive folder were loaded, and the mask appeared!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I can see the mask. All I had to do was delete and reload the files from the Documents\Adobe\Premiere Pro\26.0\ folder

    You can also start a mask with selecting Opacity (or any other effect) first.

    The edges of the mask appear when I press the Button Editor key and disappear immediately. My issue has not been resolved!!!

    Please do go and read the entire bit about the new masking system in the link Ann gave. It is very different, BUT ... it is also far more capable than before. 

     

    However, we all do need to learn how to use it ... including things like when you first make a mask, simply right-clicking it and setting it as Opacity if that is all you need.

    Everyone's mileage always varies ...

    I can't see the edge of the mask; it's invisible! I need to see the mask's edges. This is very inconvenient. How can I control an invisible mask?
