Masked areas generated in texture

[jwoods]

In older versions of Photoscan, areas that were masked in the photos would not be used to generate the texture for the mesh model.  With the newest versions I have noticed that this is no longer the case and that masking has no effect on what is or isn't included in the texture.

Many of the models I create involve roadways with moving vehicles and it's been helpful for me to mask out the cars from photo to photo so that the rendered texture is only of the roadway.  Otherwise there are ghosted images of anything that has moved in and out of the frame from photo to photo.

Is there a feature or option that I am missing that can reenable this?

+1 for this feature to be active again

or at least an option to activate/deactivate the masking in the texture setting overlay

Hello,

Which version you are using?

The problem was observed in the version 1.3.4 and should be fixed in 1.3.5 and 1.4.0.

I'm using 1.3.4 build 5067.  I didn't know there was an update; when I click check for updates the software says that it is up to date and the latest version.
