252 Chapter 3 Basic Compositing
Other Blend Modes
When you set a layer to any of the other available blend modes, each object nested
within that layer is blended according to its blend mode. The resulting image is then
blended with the layers underneath, according to the selected blend mode for that
layer. In this example, the topmost layer is set to Multiply.
As a result, the combination of the Added Fishes and the Stenciled Swirls objects is
multiplied with the Gradient object in the bottommost layer.
