9. Click the Invert button near the bottom of the Properties panel.
As you know, you want to remove the hole in the wall — not the wall. You selected
the area in the hole to create the mask. The invert button reverses the mask; selected
areas become unselected and vice versa, so now only the bricks are visible.
Inverting reverses
the selected and
unselected areas.
10. At the bottom of the Properties panel, expand the Output Settings section.
11. Choose the Layer Mask option in the Output To menu.
This menu can be used to create a new layer or file (with or without a mask) from the
selection. You want to mask the existing layer, so you are using the Layer Mask option.
12. Click OK to accept your refined selection.
The resulting layer
mask hides areas that
were not selected.
13. Save the file and continue to the next exercise.
