Short description of error
[Please fill out a short description of the error here
Sorry, I'm not sure how to ask about this.
Is the Texture Paint Mask Tool brush grandfathered?
The documentation regarding the Mask Tool under Texture Paint is confusing: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.93/sculpt_paint/texture_paint/tools.html?highlight=draw. I have spent now about 5 hours trying to find any tutorial that explains how to use this tool.
Including 3D Projection Tutorials.
However, all the tutorials I have found use the Draw Brush, clone brush but not the Mask Tool. You may wish to consider adding some clarification, or have someone create a video tutorial that explains how to use this tool.
Please if someone can send me a link to a video showing how to use this tool I would greatly appreciate it.
