History Panel Option to ignore Layer Blend Mode Changes

Using shift+plus and minus keys to see various layer blend modes eats up my History. Not quite sure why it even records... you can't use the History Brush to "blend" previous blend modes. And it is not difficult to go back to a previous blend mode. I'd like to see a History Option to ignore Layer Blend Mode Changes, like you have for Layer Visibility Changes.

OK. Changes in the Blending Dialog don't record in History until committed.Thanks!
But I don't see a way to quickly go through the various Blend Modes like you can with Shift+ plus/minus keys. I really like that keyboard method to rapidly view and compare various Blend Modes.

Has anyone ever encountered layer blend modes behaving strangely?

I use photoshop quite a bit for retouching and photo compositing. Tonight I encountered a strange problem. I was trying to create a vintage look on a photo and had a number of adjustment layers including a curves, levels, color fill and there were also a few texture/noise layers all set to varying opacities. Near the top of all this I had a vignette layer that was black around the edges and white in the center set to blend mode of multiply. Well, when I was clicking on and off I realize that that vignette layer was definitely lightening the center part of the overall image quite a bit (the part that is white on the vignette layer), almost like a screen. So I flipped the vignette layer through different opacity modes and saw that there was no change in its behavior, every mode was screening the white, even darker color and multiply. I thought maybe it was interacting in a weird way with one of the other layers so I turned all the others off except the back ground-- still no change. Then I dropped the layer down one at time until it was below the background. When I started to move it up again, it was behaving normally for a moment until I moved it up a couple levels in the stacking order and then it went back to the screen behavior. Anyway I shuffled it around a bit but there was no consitency to when it would display the correct opacity and when it wouldn't, so it did not seem to be an interaction with any specific layer. I don't know, but I can't really think of any case where white set to multiply should produce a lighter result even if it were interacting with another opacity. In any case it does seem to me that there is something going on with the overall computation of opacities. I tried creating a new black and white layer and it was also doing the same thing, behaving strange and not displaying the correct opacity.
I'm tired, so I'm going to bed. I'm going to shut off the computer and hope this goes away when I reboot, but if it does not, does this sound familiar to anyone? I'm not a regular visitor to this forum, but I thought I'd put it out there in case anyone else has experienced anything like this. I've only got 5 gigs of ram on this computer and I've been working away for a while... maybe photoshop just couldn't keep up(?) I'm using Photoshop CS5, RGB Adobe 1998 colorspace. I've never had anything like this happen in the last 11 years I've been using photoshop. Hmmm.... hope I don't have to reinstall or call support or worse. fingers crossed.

Nevermind. It is still having the problem. I have to think that this file is just corrupt somehow because I just opened another file and can't seem to cause the same problem. Basically, I can fill a layer with white, put it to a blend mode of multiply or darker color and it will block out everything of the image below, ie totally opaque. The opaqueness varies depending on the if there are other layers also on blend modes, but it does not seem to correspond to normal blend mode interaction. If I put it right on top of a regular layer with an image on it, it totally blocks it out on a blend mode of multiply... weird. I am going to scrap this file and see if the problem recurs in other files. My 2006 Mac Pro is getting some years on it and has been running pretty slow. I'm not a hardware expert but I've done everything I know how to do to maintain it. Was thinking of upping the ram to see if I can hold out a bit longer before I upgrade the computer. Wouldn't surprise me if this problem is related to the computer.

How to add keyframes on blending Mode (Normal, Soft Light etc)

Hi All,
How can I add keyframes on blending mode? I have a movie layer and need it to start from Soft Light with sooth transition to Normal or Hard Light in a few seconds.How can I do this?
Thanks
Andy

Thank you. I have found another way here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AfterEffects/9.0/WS3878526689cb91655866c1103906c6dea-7d0aa.htm l
"You can’t directly animate blending modes by using keyframes. To change a blending mode at a certain time, split the layer at that time and apply the new blending mode to the part of the layer that continues. You can also use the Compound Arithmetic effect, the results of which are similar to the results of blending modes but can change over time."
Have you tried that? which way is preferrable quality-wise?

I can't set a layer blend mode to "Screen"

Hello, I'm new to Photoshop as of an hour ago (I've been using GIMP for 2 years).
I have a layer selected and I want to set the blend mode to "screen". However, the screen mode as well as several others are greyed out and won't let me select them. I'm using Windows 8 Home Premium 64 bit, and Photoshop CS6 Extended (Trial) 64 bit. I'm intending to get Adobe Creative Cloud tomorrow, but is the reason for this that I'm using the trial version? If not, what am I doing wrong? There is a screenshot below to show what I am talking about. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Took me a few second to figure out whats wrong. But the answer is, you're in the 32 bit mode. Changing the mode to 16 or 8 { (Image>Mode>8Bits/Channel) or (Image>Mode>16Bits/Channel) } will make it available.

Why is a layer blending mode result altered by adding and effect?

I've done a search online and haven't come up with an answer but does anyone
know why a layers blending mode result is altered by adding an effect?
I am using CS3 on a PC (Windows XP SP2) and have two layers; one a Tiff and
a second a text layer with an ambient light and a spot shining on them. Both
layers have 3D turned on and accept lights and are in the same position in
space.
To make the text, which is coloured black, sit better I changed the layers
blend mode to soft light which works well.
I wanted to soften the edge of the text a little so I added a Fast Blur
effect and suddenly the result of the blend was completely different. If I
turn off the effect it goes back to what it was before but even if the Fast
Blur is set to zero, ie no blur on the layer, the blend result is altered.
Does anyone know what's going on?

Many thanks for that. I tried the Box Blur but it too shifted the result of the blend. In the end, to get this job out of the door, I changed the colour of the text to orange, lowered the opacity and used Multiply as the layer blend mode. Adding the Fast Blur effect to this didn't shift the result of the blend mode. It's not as sexy a look as using Soft Light but it works. I wonder if it's something going on with the maths or this a real bug? <[email protected]> wrote in message news:[email protected].. > Presumably a bug that uses the blur's convolution kernel when it > shoulddn't.

How to keep Opacity and Blending Mode values

Hi!
I'm working with shades/highlights and since I have to make many shapes with the same values of color, opacity, blending mode, I wonder how can I make it to keep them configured, so I dont have to go to each path and change the values every time. The only value that stays is the color, but for example, the opacity changes everytime I start a new shape with the pen tool, and as I said, I'm working with shadings for a portrait, so I have to make lots of shapes with the same characteristics. Does somebody know a way to set these values and keep them "by default" so to say??
Thanks in advance.

Thank you, it's just what I was looking for!

How to work around "screen" blending mode in CMYK document?

The document has been created in CMYK from the start. But I would like to add "glints" over the image and I normally do this by simplyl setting the "glint layer" to "screen" blending mode (when working in RGB color mode). As you all know, this does not yield desirable results when working in CMYK mode. What is the best way to get this type of effect in CMYK mode? Attached are 2 jpegs to help illustrate my point. (Text and logos have been blurred out).
Here is the "glint layer" which I usually just set to "screen mode" to take out the black, but this does not work in CMYK mode.

Okay so here is the same 2 documents again. The document on the right was the one that I tweeked, (the CMYK one). I used the "img, adjustments, brightness/contrast" and I boosted the contrast up to 100% which I feel got me the rest of the way there. This is very close to the RGB effect on the left and I feel that with a tiny bit more tweeking I can get this to work. Thank you all for your help and suggestions. I am going to credit c.pfaffenbichler with the correct answer as his comment was the one that helped me personally the most. Thank you guys for the excellent help.
So once again to clarify the correct answer. Create the doc in CMYK, grab your "glint layer". Adjust the curves and then maximize the contrast and then set the layer to screen.
Thanks again guys!
Cheers,

Layer blend mode doesn't show in export

Hi,
I am trying to export a composition from After Effects CC, I am using a Multiply blending mode in most of my layers to give it a better look.
When previewing in after effects it looks as I want it too look but when I add to AME and export it to youtube and vimeo the Multiply blending mode does not work and it shows the composition as if all the layers had NORMAL blending mode.
How can I fix this?
Thanks a lot!

Render a normal Image sequence or Quicktime clip directly from AE and convert it in AME, which would be smarter, anyway.

Layer Blend mode won't show in Export?

Hi there,
I'm trying to export a composition and one of the layers has the "Multiply" blend mode applied. It looks great in the composition, but when I export it and bring it into Premiere, the layer seems to revert to a "Normal" blend mode (Its a gray bar, so It looks drastically different when the multiply blend is active).
I am using RGB+ Alpha, Apple Prores 4444. Is there a setting I can change or some way to fix this? Thanks.

Are you rendering the entire shot including the layer below your gray bar? You may be having gamma issues with Prores. You haven't given enough details to know exactly what's going on, but my first guess is a gamma issue. Try exporting an image sequence or just render animation uncompressed or uncompressed with Alpha if you need the alpha channel in Premiere.
If you are expecting the multiply blend mode in the gray bar to multiply with a layer below your rendered footage in a Premier sequence, that's not going to happen.

Masking "disables" layer blending modes!

Hi there,
i have a comp with a bunch of layers and one of them has multiply as blending mode! (ambient occlusion layer)
so far everything went fine but as soon as i want to mask a certain part of the comp the blending mode get´s "disabled"...
Doesn´t matter what type of mask i use it´s always the same issue... it´s rly anoying =/

In my opinion theres rly nothing fancy about! Just a few passes rendered out in cinema 4D!
And as said everything works fine as long as i don´t mask the composition

Illustrator CC Layer Blending Modes not working

Did Adobe do something to Illustrator CC that the layers with the same object colors are no longer blending. No matter what blend mode I apply the object never blends with the object with the same color behind it
Any ideas?

New, Z-Buffer related blending mode

My suggestion is linked to Photoshop usage in still-image 3D composition. Specifically, it is about new layer blending mode what makes usage of depth channel (Z-buffer) information provided by rendering software.
Very often I would like to be capable of color correction of a single particular object of a 3D rendering. Though it is possible to make appropriate color correction in 3D package - this is nasty as that require additional rendering of the complete scene what is normally pretty time consuming.
Ideally, I would like to do such minor color corrections is a compositing software - in case of stills - in Adobe Photoshop.
But... how to do this?
I tried to make two render passes:
A) rendering the scene having one particular object set invisible to camera (but visible to GIobal Illumination solution)
B) rendering the scene having all objects but this one set invisible to camera (but visible to GIobal Illumination solution)
Then - these two images can be composited in Photoshop as separate layers.
That could work but it fails in case given object intersects with other in 3D space.
Normaly, 3D renderer only renders these object's parts what are visible to 3D camera, so these parts what are obscured by other object are not renedered. But if I render given object "separately" - then I have all its visible parts being rendered - even those what are normally invisible as obscured by intersecting object. And in his case alpha channel provides unsufficient information to perform appropriate selection to remove unneeded parts of the image.
Normally, this information if provided with depth channel: the Z-buffer what can be rendered in an extra pass. This is a grayscale image where shades of gray provide information about given pixel's distance to camera. But unfortunately, I can't see any use of it in Photoshop composition.
Ideally, some specialized "layer blending mode" should be implemented in Photoshop. It could work in the following manner:
Presuming there are two Photoshop layers:
- bottom layer containing (A) render image masked with its Z-buffer channel
- top layer containing (B) render image masked with its Z-buffer channel
Using new blending mode, only these pixels would be revealed what are actually "closer" based on appropriate Z-buffer data comparison between (A) and (B).
Is this suggestion worth implementation?
IMHO that would significantly faciliated 3D composition in Photoshop.

Here is a simple example of how a method is documented. (This is a stupid method, but hopefully you get the idea.)
* Prints a String. The length of the String is returned.
* @param toPrint the String to be printed
* @return   the length of the String
* @throws NullPointerException if the String is null
public int printAString(String toPrint) {
   if (toPrint == null)
      throw new NullPointerException("Null string");
   System.out.println(toPrint);
   return toPrint.length();

How to Apply adjustment layers to multiple layers that have different blending modes ...

How to Apply adjustment layers to multiple layers that have different blending modes and keep the colours the same as the adjusment done?
I work in Animation painting Backgrounds. My files are sometimes upwards to 200+ layers.
I will use adjustment layers to quickly balance colours and constrast on top of those many many layers.
The only way that I know of how to apply adjustment layers it to every single layer ( by applying I mean I need to get rid of the adjustment layers because we cant use them in production but i need the new colours be applied to all layers underneath ) in a psd is to manually do it By duplicating the adjusment layer 200+ times and then merging each layer to one of those adjustment layers so that that layer can take the adjustment layers effect permanently.
The issue is that Within Those 200 layers I have some layers set to Multiply or OVERLAY.    IT obviously wont apply the adjustment layer properly to those layers because those layer blend mode affect the layers under them. The colour wont be the same anymore in the spots that had the multiply blended mode.
HEres an example of a simple File. to show what i mean.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3408266/ball%20layers.jpg
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3408266/ball.psd
I have 2 adjustment layers up top. I need to get rid of them by applying them to each layer! I cannot merge any of the layers. We need all those layers for production.
I can apply the adjustment layers manually and this works GREAT for all Layers set to normal. THey take on the colour change just FINE.
However, The issue is that layer 6 and layer 4 are both set to mutiply and this screws up the colour once i apply the adjustment layers to each layer manually...
How can i apply my adjustment layers to a file like this with some layers being set to multiply while keeping the layers exactly the same configuration and The new colour taking efffect exactly how i looks before i apply the adjustment layers?
Now the simple solution is to merge the multiply layers to the layer that it affects HOWEVER I NEED those multiply layers to be seperate!
I'm assuming what I want to do is impossible? Hope this isnt confusing. As far as i know its impossible to do what I want it to do. but just wanted to ask and see.
I would REALLY REALLY love to talk to a adobe programmer/ technician/pro working at adobe about this. Theres just no way to get in touch with anyone... =(
any thoughts ?

Sure... if you want to put it that way. Either way its not the desirable outcome.
its just frustrating that theres no way to apply adjustment layers to hundreds of layers while keeping them in the same configuration ( blendmodes, layer order , without merging) while keeping the same end result.
works great if all your layers are set to normal though..    But I really need to keep shadow layers seperately and be able to adjust on the fly aswell as apply those adjusment to all my layers.
I suppose that just isnt possible.   I understand the math required for this would be tremendous/ complicated if something like this would ever be implemented. Would be nice if adobe could come up with some solution to this. Its really a huge issue in my work flow and theres no alternatives.    How else can I adjust colours to 100+ layers with a few clicks that lets me play around the the adjustment until im happy with the outcome.    Really wish i could adjust and the quickly apply that adjustment to all my layers regardless of blend mode.   LIke If the Layers with blendmode could somehow take the properties of the adjustment layer and keep adjusting those layers undereathe on top of that blended mode that its doing...

How to apply blending modes to a gif in CS6?

Hello everyone! I am in need of a tutorial or at least a how-to-step-through on how to apply the different blending modes on a gif.
For this specific situation, I have a gif with a black background and a white semi-glowing scope, but I just want the white glowing scope to show.
I think that Lighten would be a good blending mode, but I just don't know how to produce the results I want.
Could anyone give me a reference or a guide on how to do this?
I'm not sure how to edit a gif either, being that there are so many tutorials saying this and that, leaving me confused in the end.
If someone could break all this down for me in detail(as simple as possible) and what not, that'd be great!
Until then, thank you!

GIFs are in indexed color and don't support any blending modes nor layers. You need to do an Image --> Mode --> RGB and then a whole new world will open up...
