The result color is always darker with more contrast between light and dark pixels. The darker the base color, the more it is used in the result color. The Color Burn blend mode divides the inverted blend color luminosity by the luminosity of the base color. The Color Dodge blend mode lightens the bright pixels of the base color while for the dark pixels the result would be very moderate. The result color is always lighter, but the selection and comparison of the pixels happens for each RGB channel separately. If the pixels of the base color are darker than those in the blend color, they would be replaced. The Lighten blend mode compares the brighter pixels in both colors. It makes a selection of the darkest pixels from both images, choosing either the base color or the blend color. The Darken blend mode doesn’t blend colors. If the pixels are brighter than 50%, it will brighten them even more and it would multiply the darker pixels. The Overlay blend mode boosts the contrast of the base image. The Masking group transforms a normal layer into something similar to a clipping mask but without actually placing one layer inside the other.This group includes the Difference, Exclusion, Divide, Power, Harmonic, and Sine modes.

The Invert colors group looks for variations between the base and blend layers to create the final blend.

This group includes the Hue, Saturation, Color, and Luminosity blend modes.

The Adjust colors group has no neutral color.

These blend modes compare pixels with the mid-tone and then darken the darker pixels while lightening the lighter pixels. This group includes the Linear Light, Overlay, Soft Light, Hard Light, Vivid Light, Pin Light, and Hard Mix.

The Boost contrast group has a neutral color of 50% grey.

The lighter the blend color, the stronger the effect of the blend. This group includes the Lighten, Screen, Color Dodge, Linear Dodge, and Add blend modes. The Lighten image group has a neutral color of black.The darker the blend color, the stronger the effect of the blend. This group includes the Multiply, Darken, Color Burn, Linear Burn, and Subtract blend modes. The Darken image group has a neutral color of white.It’s easy to determine the neutral color for a blend mode because Corel Vector combines blend modes with the same neutral color intro groups. For example, applying the Multiply blending mode with a white blend color produces no result because white is the neutral color for the Multiply blending mode. Most of the blending options have a neutral color, which has no effect on the base color. Note: For all examples in this section, we are using an eye image as the base color, a circle with a gradient fill as the blend color, and the intersection both objects is the result color.
