■ Multiply Multiplies the color values of each A and B pixel. Because non-white color channels have values of less than 1.0 (using a range of 0.0 to 1.0), multiplying them tends to darken colors. ■ Color Burn Colorizes darker pixels from B with the color from A. ■ Linear Burn Same as Color Burn but with less contrast. ■ Lighten Compares the A and B pixels at each location and uses the lighter of the two. ■ Screen Makes the light areas much lighter, and the darker areas somewhat lighter. ■ Color Dodge Colorizes lighter pixels from B with the A color. ■ Linear Dodge Same as Color Dodge but with lower contrast. ■ Spotlight Like Multiply but with twice the brightness. ■ Spotlight Blend Same as Spotlight but also adds ambient illumination to B. ■ Overlay Darkens or lightens the pixels depending on the B color. ■ Soft Light If the A color is lighter than mid-gray, the image is lightened. If the A color is darker than mid-gray, the image is darkened. ■ Hard Light If a pixel color is lighter than mid-gray, screen mode is applied. If a pixel color is darker than mid-gray, multiply mode is applied. ■ Pinlight Replaces the B colors depending on the brightness of the A color. If the A color is lighter than mid-gray, B colors darker than the A color are replaced. And vice-versa: If the A color is darker than mid-gray, B colors lighter than the A color are replaced. ■ Hard Mix Produces either white or black, depending on similarities between A and B. ■ Difference For each pixel pair, subtracts the darker one from the brighter one. ■ Exclusion Similar to Difference but with lower contrast. ■ Hue Uses the color from A; the value (brightness) and saturation from B. ■ Saturation Uses the saturation from A; the value and hue from B. 5924 | Chapter 19 Material Editor, Materials, and Maps
