BlendMode Enumeration

Selects the source color, ignoring the backdrop.

Multiplies the backdrop and source color values

The result color is always at least as dark as either of the two constituent colors.

When working with additive colors, multiplying any color with black produces black while multiplying with white leaves the original color unchanged.

For subtractive colors, the maximum tint value used for all colorants of the color space acts as black does for additive spaces.

Painting successive overlapping objects with a color other than black or white produces progressively darker colors.

Multiplies the complements of the backdrop and source color values, then complements the result.

The result color is always at least as light as either of the two constituent colors.

When working with additive colors, screening any color with white produces white while screening with black leaves the original color unchanged.

For subtractive colors, the maximum tint value of all colorants of the color space acts as black does for additive spaces.

The effect is similar to projecting multiple photographic slides simultaneously onto a single screen.

Multiplies or screens the colors, depending on the backdrop color value.

Selects the darker of the backdrop and source colors.

Selects the lighter of the backdrop and source colors.

Brightens the backdrop color to reflect the source color.

Darkens the backdrop color to reflect the source color.

Multiplies or screens the colors, depending on the source color value.

Darkens or lightens the colors, depending on the source color value.

Subtracts the darker of the two constituent colors from the lighter color.

Painting with white inverts the backdrop color; painting with black produces no change.

For subtractive colors, the maximum tint value for all colourants of the color space acts as black does for additive spaces.

This blend mode is not white-preserving.

Produces an effect similar to that of the Difference mode but lower in contrast.

Painting with white inverts the backdrop color; painting with black produces no change.

For subtractive colors, the maximum tint value for all colourants of the color space acts as black does for additive spaces.

Creates a color with the hue of the source color and the saturation and luminosity of the backdrop color.

Creates a color with the saturation of the source color and the hue and luminosity of the backdrop color.

Painting with this mode in an area of the backdrop that is a pure gray (no saturation) produces no change.

This blend mode is not separable.

Creates a color with the hue and saturation of the source color and the luminosity of the backdrop color.

This preserves the gray levels of the backdrop and is useful for coloring monochrome images or tinting color images.

This blend mode is not separable.

Creates a color with the luminosity of the source color and the hue and saturation of the backdrop color.

This produces an inverse effect to that of the Color mode.

This blend mode is not separable.
