Temporary Alpha Channel

Note

This module consists of 3 functions:

  • Create Temporary Channel

  • Load Temporary Channel

  • Delete Temporary Channel


Create Channel

Create Temporary Channel

Info:

This function will create a channel from selection;

PS substitute:

Creating a channel from Channels panel;

Why I use it:

In conjunction with Load and Delete this can be used to quickly save and load selections;

By default a channel temp_selector will be created. If you hold Ctrl/Cmd while clicking on the function, you’ll be prompted with a new name.


Load Channel

This function will load a temp_selector channel as a selection. If you hold Ctrl/Cmd while clicking on the function, a UI with available channels will be shown from which you can:

  • Load any channel as selection

  • Add to/Subtract from/Intersect with an existing selection

  • Delete any user channel

By default clicking any button in the window will close it. Hold Alt to keep the window shown.


Delete Channel

This function will delete a temp_selector channel.
