Hi there!!!
I faced a problem. When I copy a mask from one layer to another, I faced a changed scale of my mask, just like in 'Layer' tab which shows up when I double-click on layer.
Is there a way to copy mask without changes without using an expressions?
Thanks!!!

Masks are based on layer size before any transform effects. Scale up a layer, and the mask dimensions don't scale. An expression won't help. A copied and pasted mask will be based on the original layer position with the layer scale set to 100% and rotation to 0º. Any movement in the layer and the new mask position will not match the mask position on the original layer.
I hope you follow that.

Masks use relative layer coordinates. Those do not change when you scale the layer. Hence you have to transform the actual mask, not the layer.
