GMPhotography Posted April 13, 2019 Share Posted April 13, 2019 I don't know if it's been asked, or if it is even possible, but it would be nice for the blend modes to follow the working profile of your file. Right now, if you're working in a CMYK file, the blend modes still behave as if they're RGB. In other words, 'Adding' CMY together turns the screen full white when it should be brown.

I have to ask, why would it be brown? Quote Mac Pro (Late 2013) Mac OS 12.7.4 Affinity Designer 2.4.0 | Affinity Photo 2.4.0 | Affinity Publisher 2.4.0 | Beta versions as they appear. I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medical Officer Bones Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Following the reasoning of the OP, ink colours on paper are subtractive, while colours on the screen (RGB) are additive. 100% CMY on paper produces a muddy brown. 100% RGB produces white. So I assume the OP expects that working in CMYK mode should be behaving likewise. But blend modes always work in screen colour space, as far as I am aware. One solution is to turn on overprint for those objects in Designer, for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
