When entering this mode, your selection is temporarily presented as a pixel mask. Pixels can be added or erased using the standard painting and erase tools.
- Painting in black will erase areas from the selection.
- Painting in white will add areas to the selection.
- Painting a grey will vary the opacity of the selection depending on the tone of grey used.
- Erased areas are always removed from a selection.
