Setting the Paint Blending Mode

1.

In the Painting palette, scroll to the Projection Settings > Painting section.

Mari displays the details of the current paint blending mode:

You can also set this in the Tool Properties toolbar.

2.

Paint a stroke or two on your model (so you can see the effects of changing the settings).

3.

Select a paint blending mode from the Painting Mode dropdown.

The paint blending modes available are similar to many other paint packages. If you aren't familiar with the various modes, see Paint Blending Modes for descriptions and examples.

As you change modes, the paint in the buffer updates to show the effect.

Tip:  Play around with the blend modes. As you change them, see how the paint in your buffer changes. Experiment with the results you can get with different blend modes, how they work with
different types of brush strokes, paint alpha values, and so on.
