About CopyMask2Layer 2
CopyMask2Layer 2 is a mask‑transfer utility for After Effects developed by mamoworld tools. It copies a mask from one layer to another without shifting its position, and the alignment remains correct when the source or target layers are moving or when the mask path is keyframed. The plugin is compatible with After Effects releases from CS3 through CS6, the CC series, and versions 2020 through 2026. Version 2.2.003 (released November 2025) adds a fix for online activation connection issues and updates the license framework. The catalog lists the tool as free, but the developer’s page should be consulted for the current licensing terms. A demo video is available on the developer’s site.
