Looking for a node to create simple horizontal and vertical masks

[andreszs]

I'm looking for a node with the ability to create simple masked areas of arbitrary size, if possible with a visual representation of the areas, similar to this Visual Area Prompt node:

The only thing I've found so far is the awkward method using the Simple Binary Pattern from ComfyRoll Studio:

However it cannot create vertical masks, in fact it creates only images, then we have to convert it to mask, and I'd prefer to avoid installing a plethora of nodes to use just 1 of them.

Can this extension create simple masked areas like this? If yes, which nodes are involved? Thanks in advance.

PS. I'm asking this here because the author has disabled the GitHub Discussions section for this repo.

Hey @andreszs! While the Create Rect Mask node will do what you want, the output will be a black and white image which you have to convert to a mask via the Image to Mask node.

Some example config:

# Vertical stripe
mode = percent
width = 20
height = 100

# Horizontal stripe
mode = percent
width = 100
height = 20

This node pack doesn't have any front-end components though (which is what would be required to display a preview).

Thanks @guill, I've put together some nodes that output MASK with embedded preview, they are now part of the Impact Pack if anyone is interested. The same nodes (without preview) have been merged into WAS Node Suite too.
