Use cases
About
The Masks mind map template is a technical functional specification and cheat sheet designed for product managers, QA engineers, and software developers working on video editing software or image processing applications. It provides a comprehensive 158-node breakdown of mask features, covering specific visual effects like Light blur and B&W HLS Effect, as well as complex logic for image media scenes. This Xmind template serves as a structural guide for implementing background removal, handling various file formats, and managing UI states within an inspector panel. It details the technical requirements for processing images with single or multiple objects, ensuring that features like 'Mask on demand' and 'Snap to grid' are consistently applied across different video orientations and editing styles.
Terms and ConditionsWhen to use this template

Frontend Developers and UI Designers
Mapping out the logic for image sticker layers and their interaction with background effects
How to use this template
Step 1
Import the technical map
Open the .xmind file in Xmind to view the full hierarchy of masking effects and UI logic states.
Step 2
Customize effect parameters
Modify the specific opacity and blur percentages in the 'Mask Feature' branch to match your software's technical specs.
Step 3
Export for documentation
Use the export feature to share the 'Inspector' and 'Image media scene' branches as a PDF or PNG for developer handoff.
Frequently asked questions
The template includes detailed specifications for several visual effects, such as Light blur (5%), Blur (10%), Lightened and Darkened color overlays with 40% opacity, and a Black and White (B&W) HLS effect with specific hue and saturation values.
It categorizes sources into files formats, ratios, live photos, and transparent or animated files. It specifically addresses how the masking engine should behave when processing images with one object versus multiple objects (up to 10).
Yes, it is highly effective for UI planning as it maps out Inspector states, button behaviors, and feedback mechanisms like the 'Analyzing' spinner and 'No mask' toast notifications for background effects.
Yes, it includes specific nodes for Landscape (LND), Portrait (PRT), and Square (SQR) orientations, ensuring that mask layouts and editing styles remain consistent across different aspect ratios.
