Omprakash Selvaraj Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Software version: Affinity Photo Beta 1.7.0.243. The Hue Blend mode in affinity is taking Saturation and Luminosity from bottom layer and Hue from Blend layer. Could anybody suggest is there any blend mode that retains Hue and Lightness from bottom layer and Hue from blend layer. View Screen Shots: Bottom Layer: HSL (300, 100, 50) Blend Layer: HSL (100, 100, 50) (Blend Mode Normal) Result with Blend mode Hue: HSL (100, 100, 30) Vs (What I want is (100, 100, 50) ) Chris B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Chris B Posted February 28, 2019 Staff Share Posted February 28, 2019 Hey Omprakash Selvaraj, I've heard back from the developers and this is by design. We use the same maths as can be seen in this PDF spec (the same as Photoshop)https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdf_reference_archive/blend_modes.pdf Omprakash Selvaraj 1 How to format a bug report | Learning Resources | List of V2 FAQs | YouTube Tutorials Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand that Adobe works that way too. Because Luminosity is to be retained from bottom layer on most occasions. But latest version of GIMP offers two kind of "HUE" blend mods one that retains Saturation and Luminosity from bottom layer and another "HUE" blend mode that retains Saturation and Lightness from bottom layer. Hope we expect this in future version of Affinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope we expect this in future version of Affinity. I've always understood Luminosity and Lightness to be interchangeable, ie; the same thing.

L in the HSL mean lightness. And this L does not come into picture when you use luminosity, color and hue blend modes. What comes is the luminosity (i.e) perceived brightness.
