    So I had some issues with one of the latest creations. Nearing the end of the laborious but often satisfying shading process i noticed when I hit the undo button sometimes items would disappear. Now mind you these were not the last item modified. So there was a bit of backtracking to do. Fortunately it wasn’t too awful to fix. Once satisfied with a finished design I exported the image and posted to my thread. So it wasn’t until JR featured the BrainBot on the blog (Thank You JR) that I noticed some shading had gone poof once again. So lesson learned. Next time I shall use a screen capture if difficulties arise. Anyone else experienced this?

    I’ve had problems when I’ve clicked undo and all my masking goes kaput and the layering has decided to rearrange its self in a untoward fashion, and when I try to open up the previous save so I don’t have to remark everything, the masking has gone on that as well. But I’ve never had things just disappear before, that’s a new one.

    I learned that this mostly happens when you (accidently or whatever) delete an item with something masked to it. First you won’t see a difference, but when you hit “undo” some time later the machine seems to be confused – it doesn’t know what to to with the masked item without the other item it was masked to.

    Only things that helps is being very very careful and also to save your work very very often. When deleting objects always check first if you have chosen the right item or if there is someting masked to it.

    It it happens nevertheless loading the last save won’t help as JR said, unless you close the window/tab/browser with HM and start it completey new. When you load one of your previous saves now it will work – at least most of the time. It’s possible that you have to go several saves back until you get the right one since you don’t know when the item was lost.

    Hope I’ve expressed myself correctly and you know what I mean … ;)

    Undo has been buggy these past few days. I’ve been running into the masking and layering issue. And… items disappear as well! This happens more frequently in Chrome than it does Internet Explorer.
