Detail

Pixel selections are baked

The wand, brushes and Quick Selection read the image the editor shows. They're flagged when it changes, but don't follow a plate frame by frame during a render. Use Color Range, Select Object or shapes for that

What the editor shows

Tools read the Image Editor's image; the add-on never forces a render

Some features need passes

Select Object, Behind Objects, Only on the Surface, reflections and the Depth of Field and Fog layers need Enable Passes and a render

Placement needs a camera

Place on Ground and Place on Surface work through the scene camera

Node handles

Edit Node on Image assumes the node works at the frame's size

Same size outputs

Selection from Node Output needs the output at the editor image's size

EXR export

No layer masks or groups in EXR; masks become separate layers
