[solved] Blend mode missing

[TommyTC]

Hello!

 

I was wondering several years why the blending of colors seems so dirty and dark.
I've found an explanation on youtube about mathematics which explains exact this phenomenon.

Unfortunately I haven't found a corresponding blend mode in Paint.NET  - or have I overlooked it?

 

This is the link to the video (4 min) jumping to example at 2:33

Is there a way to implement this blend behavior into Paint.NET?

That video is not referring to layer blend modes, it is referring to using linear gamma when blending colors.

Paint.NET does not currently have this option.

This may, or might not be helpful.

Thanks for the info.

Actually I was referring to blending colors and not to layer blend modes. Excuse me that I haven't described that correctly.

 

Perhaps it is possible to implement this feature in the future.

For me it would be a great enhancement.
