Description
|
Normal
|
Applies the transparency color on top of the base color
|
Add
|
Adds the values of the transparency color and the base color
|
Subtract
|
Adds the values of the transparency color and the base color together, and then subtracts 255
|
Difference
|
Subtracts the transparency color from the base color and multiplies by 255. If the transparency color value is 0, the result will always be 255.
|
Multiply
|
Multiplies the base color by the transparency color, and then divides by 255. This has a darkening effect, unless you are applying color to white. Multiplying black with any color results in black. Multiplying white with any color leaves the color unchanged.
|
Divide
|
Divides the base color by the transparency color, or conversely, divides the transparency color by the base color, depending on which color has the higher value
|
If lighter
|
Replaces any base color pixels that are a darker color with the transparency color. Base color pixels that are lighter than the transparency color are not affected.
|
If darker
|
Replaces any base color pixels that are a lighter color with the transparency color. Base color pixels that are darker than the transparency color are not affected.
|
Texturize
|
Converts the transparency color to grayscale, and then multiplies the grayscale value by the base color
|
Hue
|
Uses the hue of the transparency color, as well as the saturation and lightness of the base color. If you are adding color to a grayscale image, there will be no change because the colors are desaturated.
|
Saturation
|
Uses the lightness and hue of the base color and the saturation of the transparency color
|
Lightness
|
Uses the hue and saturation of the base color and the lightness of the transparency color
|
Invert
|
Uses the transparency color’s complementary color. If a transparency color value is 127, there will be no change because the color value falls in the center of the color wheel.
|
Logical AND
|
Converts the transparency and base colors to binary values, and then applies the Boolean algebraic formula AND to these values
|
Logical OR
|
Converts the transparency and base colors to binary values, and then applies the Boolean algebraic formula OR to these values
|
Logical XOR
|
Converts the transparency and base colors to binary values, and then applies the Boolean algebraic formula XOR to these values
|
Red
|
Applies the transparency color to the red channel of RGB objects
|
Green
|
Applies the transparency color to the green channel of RGB objects
|
Blue
|
Applies the transparency color to the blue channel of RGB objects
