Blend level scale query

2010-11-18 Thread David Glasgow
Can anyone say whether the LC blend level 1/ Corresponds to any particular model of transparency and opacity? 2/ Can be described in units of some kind other than the LC 1-100? 3/ Might approximate a linear scale? (Although of course these things are very trick with perceptual stuff) 4/

Not sure what you're looking for here David. AFAIK, blendLevel is simply a percentage of opacity. I have seen opacity treated in other tools using levels from 0 to 255, so I'm pretty sure finer increments of opacity are possible beyond those addressable in LC. Regards, Scott Rossi

I believe the 1-100 is a measure of percentage, not the actual bit value for the alpha channel (or whatever they are doing there). 100 would then correspond to 255 (if I do not have it backwards). If you cannot use a decimal value for blendLevel then I think you are stuck with 100 levels. Is it
