The Mask node can be used to select a :doc:`Mask data-block </movie_clip/masking/index>`.
This node can be used with other nodes, for example to Invert, Multiply or Mix, or used as a factor input.

This node has no input sockets.
Properties
==========
Masks
The selectable mask data-block. If the label is left blank, the mask name will be set.
Feather
Use or ignore feather points defined for splines see :ref:`Mask Feathers <mask-feather>` for more details.
Size
Scene Size will give an image the size of the render resolution for the scene,
scaling along when rendering with different resolutions. Fixed gives a fixed size in pixels.
Fixed/Scene gives a size in pixels that still scales along
when changing the render resolution percentage in the scene.
Motion Blur
For animated masks, creating a motion blurred mask from the surrounding frames,
with a given number of samples (higher gives better quality), and a camera shutter time in seconds.
Outputs

Mask
The black-and-white output of the mask.
