I do not think that this would solve anything --- applied to different
points in the pipeline, that values are defining a different mask.
What would be very useful is the ability to export a mask (any mask) as
a PNG bitmap (alpha-depth, for example, or better as a grayscale) and
import it again whenever a mask is needed.
This would be great also in darktable - Gimp mixed workflows, where you
could load the grayscale image as a layer mask, and having exactly the
same. Or having an external mask (a distance map for example!) generated
by another program and use it in DT.

Hi all,
A simple solution to this recurring question - who would not solve
everything, but greatly simplify the possibility of applying a
identical mask in several modules -, would enable it to input the
numerical values of 4 sliders for each rule, much like it can do it
with the right button on all other conventional sliders.
Of course it is not possible to apply it as such on the 4 sliders
rules, but why not open this possibility on areas that display the
numerical values of sliders just above the rules?
Cheers,

The problem is that the result of application of a parametric mask is
a high-resolution bitmap (~100 MB uncompressed). Not the kind of
information you want to store in the database or the xmp files.
In theory, it would be possible for one module to do the "parametric
mask -> bitmap" conversion, and to provide it to another module
further in the pipeline, but I guess that would break darktable's
architecture (one big linear pipeline) rather severely. So, that's
the kind of feature easy to dream about, but much less funny to
implement :-\.
----- Original Message -----
Is there maybe some workaround to "print" a parametric mask and then
reuse
it as drawn mask?
I would like that feature.

No.
It's possible with the drawn masks, but could not find how to do
the same
with the parametric masks.
They also do not show in the Mask Manager.
Correct.
That is a feature, and was discussed previously.
The same parametric mask, used anywhere else would result in different
masked area, because the input would be different.
