Enable the reuse of masks created in the retouch module (specifically shapes) in other modules to improve usability. This would allow users to apply the same mask across multiple modules without redrawing.
Darktable 5.2.1 Duplicate of #10336 **Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** Reuse of masks over all modules should be possible to increase usability. Create a mask in module A, reuse the same mask in module B. Or create a copy of the original mask and reuse it in module B. My use case (when I stumbled upon this): I added a fill color mask in the retouch module and wanted to add grain to the same area to let it blend in better. I had to redraw the mask in the grain module. Reusing a mask via the maskmanager would've been much easier. It is not transparent for the user why some masks are in the mask manager and other aren't. **Describe the solution you'd like** Make all masks available in the mask manager to make mask usage uniform in the application. **Alternatives** ? The comment of @TurboGit was > That's expected. The forms in Retouch module (and it was also the case for the now deprecated spot removal) are not part of the mask manager. It is also the
