Chapter 10 63 Opacity (Blue Channel) This slider controls the amount of the current effect on the Blue channel of the image. You can move this slider to the left to prevent the current effect from being applied to the Blue channel, or you can reduce the other two sliders to ensure the current effect is being applied to the Blue channel only. The Edit List BLENDING MODE You can also select different blending modes from the Blending Mode pulldown Menu that are available for all of the different Channels options. The Blending Mode determines how the image created by the current enhancement blends with the image prior to that enhancement. Using blending modes provides you with an advanced way of applying the current enhancement to your image. The different blending modes available are Normal, Lighten, Blending Mode Result Normal The Normal blending mode is the default blending mode for applying enhancements. When all channels for the enhancement are applied at 100%, the result is considered a normal enhancement. Lighten The Lighten blending mode is achieved by applying the effects of the Lighten enhancement only if those elements are lighter than the corresponding area in the original image. That is, only areas that are brighter due to the enhancement will be applied to the image. Screen The Screen blending mode is achieved by increasing the pixel values of the resulting image with the pixel values of original image. The resulting image is always brighter than the original image prior to the enhancement. Overlay The Overlay blending mode is achieved by either adding or subtracting the pixel values of the resulting image from the original image. Capture NX determines whether to add or subtract based on the value of the resulting image. Values above 128 make the final image brighter in the corresponding area; values below 128 make the final image darker in the corresponding area, while the value of 128 does not change the final image. Multiply The Multiply blending mode is achieved by subtracting the pixel values of the resulting image from the pixel values of the original image. The resulting image is always darker than the original image prior to the enhancement. Darken The Darken blending mode is achieved by applying the effects of the Darken enhancement only if those elements are darker than the corresponding area in the original image. That is, only areas that are darker due to the enhancement will be applied to the image.

The Edit List
Opacity (Blue Channel)
This slider controls the amount of the
current effect on the Blue channel of
the image. You can move this slider to
the left to prevent the current effect
from being applied to the Blue channel,
or you can reduce the other two sliders
to ensure the current effect is being
applied to the Blue channel only.
BLENDING MODE
You can also select different blending
modes from the Blending Mode pull-
down Menu that are available for all of
the different Channels options.
The Blending Mode determines how the
image created by the current enhance-
ment blends with the image prior to that
enhancement. Using blending modes
provides you with an advanced way
of applying the current enhancement
to your image. The different blending
modes available are Normal, Lighten,
Blending Mode
Result
Normal
The Normal blending mode is the default
blending mode for applying
enhancements. When all channels for the enhancement are applied at
100%, the result is considered a normal enhancement.
Lighten
The Lighten blending mode is achieved by applying the effects of the
Lighten enhancement only if those elements are lighter than the corre-
sponding area in the original image. That is, only areas that are brighter
due to the enhancement will be applied to the image.
Screen
The Screen blending mode is achieved by increasing the pixel values of the
resulting image with the pixel values of original image. The resulting image is
always brighter than the original image prior to the enhancement.
Overlay
The Overlay blending mode is achieved by either adding or subtracting the
pixel values of the resulting image from the original image. Capture NX
determines whether to add or subtract based on the value of the resulting
image. Values above 128 make the final image brighter in the correspond-
ing area; values below 128 make the final image darker in the correspond-
ing area, while the value of 128 does not change the final image.
Multiply
The Multiply blending mode is achieved by subtracting the pixel values of
the resulting image from the pixel values of the original image. The result-
ing image is always darker than the original image prior to the enhance-
ment.
Darken
The Darken blending mode is achieved by applying the effects of the
Darken enhancement only if those elements are darker than the corre-
sponding area in the original image. That is, only areas that are darker due
to the enhancement will be applied to the image.
