Photomator on iPad mask overlays.

When a mask is initially applied one sees the red mask overlay which goes away when adjustments are applied. How do I get this overlay to display again if I want to further refine the mask? On a Mac I believe an O shortcut key brings it up.

iPad, iPadOS 26

Issue resolved. With the mask layer selected, open … in bottom right corner and select ‘always show overlay’.

Thanks LotusPilot, I’ve been through the support website and no answer there. Thought someone in this community may know a way of achieving this that they have experienced. I will contact the App developer (Apple) if this turns out to be a bug, error or omission, but at the moment I am just asking how to do something as a new user.
