Using blend modes and opacity
When using a tool in Edit, at the top there is a blend mode and opacity tools. These tools give you creative control and let you
combine the two to create a new image. You can apply blend modes and opacity to an entire image or to a selected part of an image.
Opacity
The Opacity slider changes the opacity of the edited image. It gives you control of how much of the edit should be visible on the
image.
Blend modes
The ability to control how the edits and the image merge, means that other blend modes besides opacity can be used to affect the
final image.
Normal Pixels in the edited image are combined with those in the original. Only opacity affects this blend.
Screen Combines the edited image color with the inverse of the original photo color, resulting in a color that is the
same or lighter.
Multiply Combines the edited image color with the original photo to produce a darker color. Multiplying any color with
black produces black; multiplying any color with white leaves the color unchanged.
Dodge Combines the edited image color with the original pixels in the photo to produce a lighter color.
Burn Combines the edited image color with the original pixels in the photo to produce a darker color.
Overlay Preserves the shadows and highlights of the lower layers while applying either Multiply or Screen blend mode
based on the original image area's color values.
Difference Subtracts the edited image color from the color of the original photo. Any white in the edited image produces a
true negative of the color in the image, while black produces no effect.
Darken Applies pixels in the edited image that are darker than the original image. Pixels in the edited image that are
lighter than the original image disappear (based on RGB values).
Lighten Applies pixels in the edited image that are lighter than the original image. Pixels in the edited image that are
darker than the original image disappear (based on RGB values).
Hard Light Adds strong highlights or shadows by applying Multiply or Screen based on the original image area's color
values.
Soft Light Adds soft highlights or shadows by darkening or lightening based on the original image area's color values.
Hue Applies the hue value of colors in the edited image to the color of the original image areas.
Saturation Applies the saturation value of colors in the edited image to the color of the original image areas.
Color Applies the hue and saturation of the edited image to the image. This blend does not affect the luminance of
the original image.
Luminosity Applies the lightness value of colors in the edited image to the color of the original image areas.
Dissolve Applies some pixels from the edited image layer onto the original image, resulting in specks of color. The
Opacity slider controls the amount of speckling.
The blend mode and opacity controls apply to many of the editing tools and special effects filters. When it does not make sense to
have these controls, they are omitted. The blend mode and opacity controls are not on the following tools: Crop, Resize, Rotate, Flip,
Text, Red Eye Reduction, Repair Tool, Selections.
Previewing changes to images
You can use the Preview bar to see how the changes you are making affect your image. The Preview bar shows you the last loaded
image in Edit, and the image after your changes. You can pan either image in the Preview bar by dragging it within its pane, and
drag the edges or corners of the Preview bar to resize it.
You can access the Preview bar by clicking on the Preview button .
You can use the Preview bar with the following tools:
