blending modes

[dofminster]

Would it be possible in animations to allow different means of blending, as in photoshop, of layered objects. I have done quite a lot of this with some dramatic results but only in stills. Do do so under animation I think would offer great creativity.

Hello dofminster,

I do not know which of the said blending modes can be achieved for 2 images which move independently. There are slide show programs which offer (beside alpha-blending, as done in PTE) a so-called "additive blending" which is similar to the Photoshop mode "Screen" (an imitation of the situation where 2 (analogue) projectors throw their light onto the same screen). As this mode tends to produce highlight clipping, it only makes sense in combination with individual control of image lightness.
