    When using ’Lighten’, the black parts of the upper layer disappear and anything brighter than black has the potential of lightening the underlying image. Lighten mode compares the active layer to the underlying image only allowing those areas that are lighter than the underlying image to show up. R59770209 DML-1200 02/02/2009...

    Therefore, blending with white inverts the color values (the color value is subtracted from 100% and gives the inverse color). Blending with black makes no changes as you subtract 0 from the color value. Combination mode difference changes the colors and not the brightness.

    Screen mode is used for highlighting, and making the layer appear lighter. Since highlights cannot be shown with black, no effect will appear by applying the Screen mode to an entirely black layer, or part of a layer. Image 12-62 R59770209 DML-1200 02/02/2009...
