Loading layer masks to selections

Although a layer mask does not protect areas of a layer from being edited, you can load a layer mask to a selection. The selection provides protection to the hidden parts of the layer. For more information, see Selections and transformations.

To load a layer mask to a selection

In the Layers panel, select a layer that has a layer mask.

Control + click the layer mask icon (macOS), or right-click the layer mask icon (Windows), and choose Load Layer Mask To Selection.
