"depth Z combine" layer blending mode


Recommended Posts

Would be nice if both Photo and Design have a special "depth combine" mode for  images/layers representing depth as grayscale value.    So that kind of "depth" layer would mixing to underlying "depth' layers with a kind of intersecting mask, preferably antialiased.

 

 

I could do so just by setting  this layer as "lighter"  then copy paste underlying image on the top  and set it to "difference" , then threshold so anything grey turns white, then add 1pix blur to antialias the mask .

 

So basically I would get a mask encompassing pixels with depth grayscale values higher than underlying pixels + 1 pix antialiasing.

 

Would be nice to have all those calculations working just as a blending mode
