NotMyFault Posted May 3, 2021 Share Posted May 3, 2021 Hi, I'm struggling to understand the blend mode "saturation". I didn't find any Affinity specific definition about this blend mode, so falling back to Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blend_modes#Hue,_saturation_and_luminosity, but the article leaves some room for (mis-)interpretations as it mixes the terms Saturation, Chroma, HSV and HSL without proper clarity. What i assume: When applying a layer with blend mode "saturation", the result will use the luminosity and hue of the bottom layer, but the saturation of the top layer (excluding edge cases like white/black/grey): Using the HSL templates from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Hsl-swatches and adding an gradient rectangle with S from 0 to 100%. set blend mode to "saturation". Then either use the info panel (with mode set to HSL), or my secret sauce procedural texture filter to inspect the result. Unfortunately, the resulting hue strongly depends on the color of the bottom layer Please look at the info panel with 5 samplers applied to the blue (hue 240°) Layer not applied: S: 100 / 75 / 50 / 25 / 0 Layer applied: S: 72 / 52 / 41 / 40 / 0 The layer has a sat of 36% at the line. Now my questions: I would expect that the hue and luminosity stays untouched, and hue gets changed to 36%, for pixels at the ruler (L 1/2) I do not understand why the blend result differs from 36% saturation (except black / white where sat=0 is expected). Can someone explain? How is the blend mode defined in Affinity? The Info panel shows that the luminosity changes, too which is totally unexpected (based on Wikipedia's description). Is it possible to get a blend result using a chosen saturation value (similar to the Wikipedia template charts) with help of blend modes or adjustments / filters? Luminosity and hue should stay untouched. Thank you for helping with your expertise.

NotMyFault Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hmm the more i dig the more it looks like a bug in Affinity. I'v used the test images (from the help section) of a known brand to compare what "other" apps deliver. The results differ strongly to Affinity. Is someone here in the forum with access to Photoshop, who can provide the output both of PS and Photo, using self-created test images?

h_d Posted May 4, 2021 Share Posted May 4, 2021 4 hours ago, NotMyFault said: The results differ strongly to Affinity. In what way? I followed the admittedly brief guide in the SLR Lounge article linked by @v_kyr As I understand it, using Saturation Blend Mode, a fully saturated overlay of any hue whatsoever will boost the saturation of all hues in the underlying layer - the higher the saturation in the underlying layer, the higher the saturation of the resulting blend, no matter what the hue of the overlay. The SLR Lounge article uses a fully saturated rainbow layer to illustrate this. I set up an AP document with an image overlaid with a rainbow-filled rectangle and a black-to white greyscale gradient-filled rectangle. Both the overlays have their blend mode set to Saturation. The rainbow colours were defined using HSL sliders to give full saturation, 50% lightness and a range of hues from Red to Violet. The greyscale layer is simply a black-to-white gradient. In my original RGB/8 jpg, straight out of the camera, a row of red tulips is highly saturated (because they're pretty much pure red) while the rest of the garden is of average saturation. The rainbow layer at 100% opacity boosts the saturation of the tulips while leaving the rest of the garden relatively unchanged. Original: Rainbow layer applied: (Sorry about the dark band, there's a glitch in the rainbow.) Sampling with the info panel in HSL mode, the hues stay identical, there's a minor change in luminosity, the saturation is increased to 100% across the entire image. Reducing the opacity of the overlay gradually reduces the saturation effect, again without affecting the hues. If I turn off the rainbow, activate the greyscale ramp with 100% opacity and reconvert to RGB/8, I get an almost completely desaturated image: I say "almost" because at the white end of the ramp, the Info panel shows around 1% saturation across the image. Reducing the opacity of the greyscale layer increases the saturation of the overall image, until around 20% I get something that has balanced out the saturation and may be just about usable with further tweaking: Again, the hues of the original are unaffected, no matter what the greyscale value of the overlay. Only the saturation is modified, with tiny changes in luminosity. As far as I can see, this is the same behaviour described for Photoshop in the SLR Lounge article. I don't really understand the information about chroma and luminance colour space in the Wikipedia article you referred to - my post just describes the effects I'm seeing. (And it doesn't help that the Affinity Photo Help files give no description of what the Saturation Blend Modes is meant to do.) EDIT: didn't mean to post this final image but I'll leave it here. It shows the effect if the colour format of the underlying image is changed to RGB/32 (HDR).

NotMyFault Posted May 4, 2021 Author Share Posted May 4, 2021 Hi all, to be more specific about my issue: according to all documentation (from other vendors), the blend mode "saturation" should not change hue or luminance. But all my tests actually show that luminance drops e.g. from 50 to 25. The actual questions is: bug or feature?

dmstraker Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 Code-wise, I think this is how it works: If you go to https://www.easyrgb.com/en/math.php and RGB->HSL, there's code to convert RGB from each pixel to HSL. Apply this to both the top (Blend) layer and the bottom (Base) layer. Then reconstitute RGB using the HSL->RGB code, using the S from the top Blend layer and H and L from the bottom Base layer. The same principle applies to the Hue and Luminosity blend modes. For the Colour blend mode, the H and S are taken from the Blend layer and just the L from the Base layer. Summary for colour blend modes: Hue = Hue(Blend) + Saturation(Base) + Luminance(Base) Saturation = Hue(Base) + Saturation(Blend) + Luminance(Base) Colour = Hue(Blend) + Saturation(Blend) + Luminance(Base) Luminosity = Hue(Base) + Saturation(Base) + Luminance(Blend) Aside: Related to the easyrgb.com code, I did a video on how Hue is calculated.

Hi Dave, i saw your video when you published it, exiting work 👍👍 Actually, i already independently created some procedural texture filters which convert between HSL and RGB, and used them to check if affinity follows these formulas.

I've found that indeed this is true and there's no 'one right way' to calculate sat/chr and lum/lig/bri, though in certain situations one may be more helpful than another. It does help to understand what is being used where. Without giving away IP, it would be helpful to have a manual for all this, though I do appreciate that (a) this would be a bunch of work, and (b) there aren't too many of us technically curious folk out there.

Affinity's Saturation blend mode, like that of Photoshop and several other apps which produce the same result, is intentionally not performing HSL saturation blending. Similarly, Luminosity blend mode is intentionally not performing HSL lightness blending. dmstraker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
