I forgot: you can move the image content with the cursor keys. This
works also when you are in the process of creating a mask. (The default
branch contains a fix which adapts the scroll rate to the image size.
This should be more appropriate than a fixed scroll rate.)

Title:
  option to combine overlapping masks

Status in Hugin:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  In projects with moving persons and in some other cases I sometimes
  need to draw very detailed masks. So I zoom in but than sometimes the
  area I want to mask doesn't fit inside the display area. This leads to
  a workflow problem: it's not easy to scroll when I have an "open" mask
  in the works (in that state I can't get access to the "Zoom" drop down
  menu or scroll lines but instead mark new mask corners outside of the
  image).

  One idea is to have a modifier key (some applications use the 'space'
  or 'alt' key for this) that turns the mouse pointer to a "hand" symbol
  so I can drag the image inside the display area.

  The other idea is to create several overlapping masks and combine those later. So one solution would be to have a context menu for a mask if it has overlapping masks for the same image number that have the same mask type (or ask for resulting mask type if those differ): 
  - combine with mask <list of numbers of other available masks>
  - combine with all overlapping masks

  An alternative to the former is to select several masks in the list (shift+click or so) and have a context menu with:
  - combine selected masks
  (also via the usual buttons 'copy', 'export' and selection of a different 'mask type' would be available for several masks at once)
