Not sure what the algorithm for divide mode would be.  Would i be feasible to implement this via Apply Image?

I would love to figure out this work-around if possible. Just surprised we haven't gotten a reply on this, to my knowledge. No offense meant to the dev team or mods, just curious.

Serif does not normally respond to feature requests.  Sometimes, but not usually.  They do read them.

It is apparently just what the name implies: take the corresponding pixel values of the two layers and divide one by the other.

You can actually implement the equivalent of divide using Filters > Apply Image. Just tick the Equations box and enter the equations:

DR=DR/SR

DG=DG/SG

DB=DB/SG

Or you could reverse the two if you wanted:

DR=SR/DR

DG=SG/DG

DB=SB/DB

However, I can see no easy way to automate this as a macro.

Too bad this is missing. I was just following a Photoshop tutorial for a cartoon look effect. :-(

( Yes, I found the other threads here, but I'm not really happy with the results. )

As shown by the good fellow in this tutorial it is a delight to use divide in Photoshop. And very, very simple to use and remember.

Divide is one of the few features I would like to see in Photo 2.0 - apart from a total usability and workflow makeover. Photo is a teenage room.
