Amount Slider in Masks Panel Reset Sliders Checkbox

[dpick53]

When you click on the triangle for a selected mask, the amount slider opens up. It has a checkbox to "Reset Sliders Automatically". I cannot find any information on the what this box does. Does anyone know the effect of checking this box or unchecking this box?

If checked, this causes the next adjustment mask you make, to start out with all zeroed adjustments (that you can then vary, for that particular mask, but will always return to zero for the following mask you make).

If not checked, the next adjustment mask you make will start out with a default set of adjustments - instead - and that default can include whatever non-zero adjustments you wish.

Those defaults are made, or later changed, by beginning to add a new localised masking element - such as a gradient filter - but before clicking to set where in the picture this gradient (etc) is going to go, move the sliders around as desired. This changes fhe default positions of the sliders not only for the current mask you are building, but also for other future masks - until you say different.

Thank you so much. That is very helpful. I couldn’t find any documentation
on that checkbox. I appreciate it!--
