MaskingBug Shapes

The MaskingBug has two shapes, round or planar. The bug shape is controlled in the Masking pane from the shape pop-up. The MaskingBug tool changes appearance from a round body to a square body depending on which shape is used. The round shape is the default. This creates a round or oblong mask.  

The second shape, planar, creates a rectangular or graduated filter appearance.

Tip: You can use the Invert button to flip the mask for the MaskingBug. This will apply the effect in the opposite way.
