How do you copy paste an adjustment layer mask to the above layer?

[blogsofwar.me]

Hi, sorry about the old question, but I did search and the answer didn't work for me.

I need to apply two different adjustment layers to the same selection, here in the screenshot I linked them in case it's necessary.

I control clicked on the mask in the first layer from the bottom, the one already applied, and the menu doesn't give any "copy"-

My next adjustment layer is ready on the top and I need to bring the same black mask in the white layer

The correct answer I found is "double tap mask, select all and copy. Double tap on destination mask and paste".

In my case, if I double tap the black mask, I open up "Properties".

Could someone specify which keys exactly to press for copyng and pasting on a mac?

PS. Could someone precise if I am in the correct forum? if not, which is the old "general discussion"?

thanks

To copy a layer mask press Option or Alt and drag the layer mask to the destination layer mask to replace that layer mask.

You can also Ctrl click the mask to load it as a selection, and add a layer mask (if there is not already a mask).  The mask will then reveal only the area you had selected.

If it is something like an adjustment layer, so already has a layer mask, you can

Ctrl click the first mask to load as a selection

Select the new mask and use Alt backspace to fill the selection using black.

Invert the layer mask (Ctrl i)
