									 Hi,
This is getting frustrating.  I have a few cloud cover on my Landsat 8 image that I want to get rid of.  So from the ROI Toolbox, I created a cloud ROI then saved it.  Next I wanted to mask the clouds out of the image, so I went to Toolbox -> Raster Management -> Masking -> Build Mask.  
In the "build mask input file" window, I chose the image with clouds as input file, then clicked OK.
In the "Mask definition" window, I clicked "options" and imported the cloud ROI I created previously.  Then assigned a mask output name.
Once the cloud mask was created, I then went to Toolbox -> Raster Management -> Masking -> Apply Mask
In the "Apply mask input file" window, I chose the image with clouds as input file, then clicked OK.
In the "select mask band" button, I put the cloud mask band I created.  Then OK.
Finally, in the "apply mask parameters", mask value =  0, then set the output name.. Then OK.
Here comes the problem.  After the process was done, the result was not the one I expected.  I was hoping to have an output with a new image WITHOUT clouds.  However, the resulting image is the cloud mask itself!  
Did I do something wrong?  
"Image with clouds" minus "clouds" = "image without clouds"  ---- this is what I want. 
 "Image with clouds" minus "clouds" = "clouds"  ---- this is NOT what I want.
Can anyone shed a light on this?  I have done this process three times and the same result every time.
Thanks for the help.
