Blending modes
The blending mode is controls how pixels in the image are affected by a painting or editing tool.
•The base color is the original color in the image.
•The blend color is the color being applied with the painting or editing tool.
•The result color is the color resulting from the blend mode.
Types Of Blending modes
Normal
Edits or paints each pixel to make it the result color. This is the default mode.
Dissolve
Edits or paints each pixel to make it the result color. However, the result color is a random replacement of the pixels with the base color or the blend color.
Darken
Looks at the color information in each channel and selects the base or blend color—whichever is darker—as the result color..
Multiply
Looks at the color information in each channel and multiplies the base color by the blend color. The result color is always a darker color. Multiplying any color with black produces black. Multiplying any color with white leaves the color unchanged..
Color Burn
Looks at the color information in each channel and darkens the base color to reflect the blend color by increasing the contrast between two.
Linear Burn
Looks at the color information in each channel and darkens the base color to reflect the blend color by decreasing the brightness.
Lighten
Looks at the color information in each channel and selects the base or blend color whichever is lighter—as the result color.
Screen
Looks at each channel’s color information and multiplies the inverse of the blend and base colors. The result color is always a lighter color.
Color Dodge
Looks at the color information in each channel and brightens the base color to reflect the blend color by decreasing contrast between the two.
Linear Dodge (Add)
Looks at the color information in each channel and brightens the base color to reflect the blend color by increasing the brightness..
Overlay
Multiplies or screens the colors, depending on the base color. Patterns or colors overlay the existing pixels while preserving the highlights and shadows of the base color..
Soft Light
Darkens or lightens the colors, depending on the blend color. The effect is similar to shining a spotlight on the image.
Hard Light
Multiplies or screens the colors, depending on the blend color. The effect is similar to shining a harsh spotlight on the image.
Vivid Light
Burns or dodges the colors by increasing or decreasing the contrast, depending on the blend color.
Linear Light
Burns or dodges the colors by decreasing or increasing the brightness, depending on the blend color.
Pin Light
Replaces the colors, depending on the blend color. If the blend color (light source) is lighter than 50% gray, pixels darker than the blend color are replaced.
Hard Mix
Adds the red, green and blue channel values of the blend color to the RGB values of the base color.
Difference
Looks at the color information in each channel and subtracts either the blend color from the base color or the base color from the blend color, depending on which has the greater brightness value.
Exclusion
Creates an effect similar to but lower in contrast than the Difference mode. Blending with white inverts the base color values.
Subtract
Looks at the color information in each channel and subtracts the blend color from the base color..
Divide
Looks at the color information in each channel and divides the blend color from the base color.
Hue
Creates a result color with the luminance and saturation of the base color and the hue of the blend color.
Saturation
Creates a result color with the luminance and hue of the base color and the saturation of the blend color.
Color
Creates a result color with the luminance of the base color and the hue and saturation of the blend color.
Luminosity
Creates a result color with the hue and saturation of the base color and the luminance of the blend color. This mode creates the inverse effect of Color mode.
Lighter Color
Compares the total of all channel values for the blend and base color and displays the higher value color. Lighter Color does not produce a third color, which can result from the Lighten blend.
Darker Color
Compares the total of all channel values for the blend and base color and displays the lower value color. Darker Color does not produce a third color, which can result from the Darken blend.
