1. Re: Editing mask path transparency throws one out of mask mode
Monika Gause Dec 30, 2012 2:59 PM (in response to evan.fotis)What do you want to achieve with the blend mode inside an opacity mask? And how do you expect Illustrator to handle this?

2. Re: Editing mask path transparency throws one out of mask mode
evan.fotis Dec 31, 2012 1:01 AM (in response to Monika Gause)I wanted to use multiply mode so as the mask paths are overlayed they just hide portions of the selected placed image.
I would expect Illustrator to stay in mask edit mode, and not exit each time I change transparency from Normal to Multiply for any mask path. -
3. Re: Editing mask path transparency throws one out of mask mode
Monika Gause Dec 31, 2012 3:12 AM (in response to evan.fotis)An opacity mask uses just the greyscale information taken from the an object or image as a mask. Just like layer masks in Photoshop.
This stuff cannot at the same time multiply. If you want to also multiply it, you need a second object (a copy of the paths you used as mask).
