4 "screen" Multiplies the complement (inverse)
of the movie clip color by the
complement of the background
color, resulting in a bleaching effect.
This setting is commonly used for
highlights or to remove black areas
of the movie clip.
5 "lighten" Selects the lighter of the constituent
colors of the movie clip and those of
the background (the ones with the
larger values). This setting is
commonly used for superimposing
type.
For example, if the movie clip has a
pixel with an RGB value of
0xFFCC33, and the background
pixel has an RGB value of
0xDDF800, then the resulting RGB
value for the displayed pixel is
0xFFF833 (because 0xFF > 0xDD,
0xCC < 0xF8, and 0x33 > 0x00 =
33).
6 "darken" Selects the darker of the constituent
colors of the movie clip and those of
the background (the ones with the
smaller values). This setting is
commonly used for superimposing
type.
For example, if the movie clip has a
pixel with an RGB value of
0xFFCC33, and the background
pixel has an RGB value of
0xDDF800, the resulting RGB
value for the displayed pixel is
0xDDCC00 (because 0xFF > 0xDD,
0xCC < 0xF8, and 0x33 > 0x00 =
33).
