Ahahaha, yeah, it started off working perfectly, but I changed stuff around and forgot about it. I will fix it again!

Alright, I think this should work fine!
I hope you understand the idea behind it, because it was already working quite well. Now it's a bit more obvious, when you go into mask mode after hitting [Shift]+[q].
The idea is, that it blocks the fluid where there is already material and only allows fluidity in the open space without any paint on it!

Also I've added a little simple "auto levels" feature for the current layer you're on by hitting [Ctrl]+[Shift]+[m]. ( thanks borhani )

thanks taron *

Uh, good catch, hahaha... that's what happens, if I make things too quickly, haha!

i am test it
works fine but only on layered png & non full layers.
its nice for limited mask now. nice for import layered sketch and add water to it !
من از شما متشکرم و دوست دارم تستهای فراوانی با این قابلیت بزنم
thanks*

(for futureو please) add the feature for grayscale to mask.
like bump map from 0 to 1 - white_grays_black ... like alpha maps in other graphic apps.

drawn with alchemy. convertet to layer mask with photoshop and impasto with verve

thanks again Taron *
