Crop tool not working with free draw bezier

[Sky24]

Hello,

when I use the crop tool and just crop the layer by selecting "crop" in the effects control panel and then drag the edges, it works fine

but when I try using the free draw bezier tool, it does not crop (or mask) anything, it simply draws a useless path.

Shouldn't it just do the same thing as above, removing everything on that layer around the shape?

I tried restarting the computer, but that didn't help.

Dont use the mask tool from the Crop Effect but rather from Opacity.

They dont mix well.
