My goal is a rectangular vector mask that I can freely resize without resizing the masked layer, but I'm confused about the interplay between shapes and vector masks:
- I can't figure out how to convert a dedicated shape layer to a vector mask. Ctrl + drag automatically rasterizes the shape, leading to the second problem:
- If I draw a rectangle on a vector mask, I can't figure out how to treat that rectangle like a regular shape layer; I don't know how to resize it (or even move any of the anchor points) without also resizing the masked layer.
