Layer and the blending layer obo and the Binger a layer blending mo determines how a spec plant is underlying els in as an amateur. And you can create a variety of a special effect using by the way and how to specify over and field for selected layers. A lay by the way of a rule determines to what degree it it obscures or reveals to the layers to the layer. And the layer with 1% appears nearly transparent and it is one with 100% appears completely obre and in addition to overall which affects layer styles and planting mos applied to a layer and you can and the fields effect all and are on a layer without affecting the opposite of layer effects such as drop shadows, not and be careful please here. Now you can't, you can't change the opacity of a background layer or a logged layer by the way to convert a background layer into a regular layer that supports transparency, transparency and to to and see convert background and photo layers. And number one in the layers panel select one or more layers or groups. And number two change the opacity and think that is. And if you select it a group only our city is available and to view all blending options, choose blending options from a layer style icon and at the bottom of the layers panel and how to specify a blending merger for a layer or group, by default, as a blending merger of a layer group is passed through which means that the group has no no blending process but the way of its own. And when you choose different blending mode for a group, you you effectively change the order in which is an image components are put together. And all of the layers in as a group are put together first. And as a compiled group is then treated as a single image and blended and blended with the rest of the image using the selected blending mole. And if if you choose a blending mode as through for the group, none of the adjustment layers or layer blending modes inside the group will apply two layers outside the group not and be careful please here. Now there is no clear blending mode by away for layers and for map images, the color, the color torture color porn and darken and lighten and different and exclusion. And the subtract and divide mode are unavailable. By the way for H D R images take care, please. OK. So number one select tell or group from the layers panel. And number two choose a blending mode and from the layer el choose an option from a blend mode, pop up menu and then choose layers and choose style layer style and the blending options by the way. And then you choose an option from ZL mood pop up menu and not here again, please not here again and take care and be careful again. Second time in a pop up menu, scroll over different options to see how they look on your amateur and Photoshop displays a live review of plenty modes on the canvas. What about group blend effect, group blend effect. By default layers in a clapping bask are blended with the underlying layers using the blending mo of the bottom mast layer in as a group. However, you can choose to have a B mo of the bottom mast layer apply only to that layer and allowing you to serve serve is the original blending appearance of the layers. And you can also apply the blending mode of a layer to layer effect that modify a Q pixels and such as inner glow glow or color overlay. And without changing layer effect by the way that modify only transparent pixels such as outer glow or group shadow. And you should to select the layer that you want to affect and then double click a layer um then choose blending of chance from panel menu or choose layer, then choose a layer style, then choose blending of not and be careful. Please again to view blending options for layer it choose layer, then you choose layer style, then you have to choose a blending options or choose blending options from the add a layer style button at the bottom of the layer panel. Menu number three is is a scoop of blending of how to be is a scoop of a blending of you. You you you you choose to select select blend interior effect as group to apply the blending of the layer to layer effect that modify over bases such as inner glow or or sat or cover overlay, overlay and gradient overlay. Then select blend layers as group to apply the blending of the base layer to all layers in the clapping mask. So this selecting this this option and which is always selected by default and maintains as the original blending mo and appearance of each layer in the group like this screenshot. Now advance at plenty of and select layers to restrict layer effect and and non to to the Q areas of the layer. And this selecting is the option and which is always selected by default by the way, applies this effect throughout the layer. And there is a select layer mask high effective to restrict the layer effect to the area defined by the layer mask. Then select the vector mask hides effective to distract layer effect to the area defined by the vector mask. Then click OK. How to exclude the channels? How to exclude how to exclude channels from blending. You can restrict the blendings effect to as channel when you plant a layer a group or group by default, and all the channels are included by the way. And when using an R GB image, for example, you can choose to exclude the red channel from blending. And in the composite image, only the information in the green and blue channels is affected. And you should to do the following double click a layer umbrel. Then you choose layer, then you choose layer style, then you choose blending options, then choose blending options from the add a layer style icon and at the bottom of the layers panel not and to be careful again to view blending options for a text layer choose layer, then choose a layer style. Then you have to choose blending options or choose blending options from the add a layer style button at the bottom of the layer panel. Menu number two from the advanced blending area of la de select any channels. And you don't want to include when the layer is blended is beside a tonal range for blending layers. How to be a tonal range for blending layers. The sliders by the way in the blending options, the process control which pixels from as the active layer and the underlying visible layers appear in as a final image. For example, you can drag you, you can drop, sorry, I'm so sorry, you can drop dark pixels out of the active layer or forcer pixels from the underlying layers to show. And you can also define a range of buttery blended pixels to produce a smooth transition between blended and un blended areas. And we have steps, step number one, double click a example. Then you choose layers, they will choose layer style, they choose blending options, then they choose add a a layer style and blending options from the layers panel menu not and care for you. Please. Now again to view blending options for text layer choose layer, then you have to choose layer style, then blending options or choose blending options from the add a layer style button at the bottom of the layers panel menu number two in advance blending area of style to choose an option from a plant. If baba menu, if barb menu choose gray to specify a blending range for all channels, then select an individual cover channel. For example red and green or blue in in R GB image to blending in that channel. Number three, use this use this layer, use this layer and underlying layer sliders to set the brightness range of the blended pixels and measured on a scale from zero black to 255 white and drag the white spider to set the high value of a drag, the black spider to set the low value of the range to define to define a range of virtually blended els hold down and out if you use windows or option, if you use and track one half of a slider triangle and the two values that appears above the divided slider indicate the virtual blending blending range and give and give the following the following guidelines. In mind, when you define blending ranges, use this layer of sliders to be the range of pixels on as the active layer that oil oil and therefore appear in as a final image. For example, if you drag the white to 235 with brightness values higher than 235 will remain unblem and will be excluded from the final image by the way. And you have to use the underlying layers. It's like to specify the range of pixels in the underlying visible layers that will plant in the final image and the plan of pixels are com combined with pixels in as the active layer to produce composite pixels and W is enabled beel show through overlying area of the active layer. By the way, for example, if you drag the black slider to 19 pixels with brightness values lower than 19 will remain un un blended and will show through the active layer in the final image. So what about if you would like to fill new layers with a natural color, natural color? If you would like to fill new layers with natural colors, you can't abide by the way certain filters such as the lighting effect filter and two layers with no Xel and the selecting field with multi natural color in the new layer yellow box and resolves this problem by first fill the layer with a such and the natural color is invisible. Natural color is assigned according to the layers blending motor. And if no effect is applied, finding with a natural color has no effect. By the way on the remaining layers and filled with natural natural color option is not available for layers and that use the normal dissolve and hard mix and use color or luminous mo.
