Blending Modes list

Here is an exhaustive list of the available Blending Modes along with some examples.

Drawing Mode	Description	Examples
Color	The default Blending Mode. Colors will be applied over the existing drawings on your canvas.
Behind	The Current Layer's pixels are applied on the source's transparent pixels.
Erase	Uses the Current Layer's non-transparent pixels to erase the source's pixels.
Shade	All the non-transparent pixels in the current layer will shade the source.
Light	All the non-transparent pixels in the current layer will brighten the source
Colorize	Colors the source with the colors of the current layer. This mode preserves the source's luminosity values.
Tint	Colors the source with the colors of the current layer. This mode preserves the source's luminosity and saturation values.
Saturate	Increases the source's pixels saturation levels using the Current Layer's pixel values. The intensity of the effect depends on your Power and Opacity settings.
Value	Uses the Current Layer's colors and the source's saturation and hue levels.
Add	Adds the Current Layer's colors to the source's.
Sub	Subtracts the Current Layer's colors from the source's.
Multiply	The Current Layer's colors will be multiplied by the source's. The result is usually a darker Layer.
Screen	Same as the Multiply mode but inverts the results The result is usually brighter.
Replace	Replaces all of the source's pixels by the Current Layer's.
Substitute	Blends the Current Layer's pixels with the source's in relation of the Layer's opacity.
Difference	Subtracts the Current Layer's pixel values to the source's. It then uses the absolute value of the result.
Divide	The source's values are is divided by the Current Layer's. The result is usually a lighter Layer.
Overlay 1 & 2	Overlay modes darken the Layer, but not as much as Multiply mode.
Dodge (Light2)	The source pixels are brightened depending on the Current Layer's brightness.
Burn (Shade2)	The source pixels are darkened depending on the Current Layer's values.
Hard Light	Acts like the Overlay mode but with the Current Layer and the source being swapped for the computation. This mode results in bright colors and sharp edges.
Soft Light	Similar to the Overlay mode. It tends to make the edges softer and the colors not so bright.
Grain Extract	Extracts the grain from the source by using the Current Layer.
Grain Merge	Merges the Current Layer's grain into the source.
subtract	Another way to subtract the Current Layer.
Darken Only	Selects the darkest value between the Current Layer and the source.
Lighten Only	Selects the brightest value between the Current Layer and the source.
