Hi all,
I have been enjoying the blend module lately and would love to know how the different modules compute the output. Is this documented anywhere? I could not find this in the MMV manual.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Documentation on blend module?
The Blend module implements the Photoshop blending modes.
Here's a thread discussing its earlier implementation(s). The code gives details of the maths operations with some comments, but I found it difficult to appreciate the practical effect and have usually just tried each effect in turn. Note that effect of some of the blend modes depends on the order of the inputs.

I asked Perplexity AI to see if that would help understanding the modes. I haven't checked the answer against the above code, but hope it's useful.

Thanks a lot for this Terry! Much appreciated. The perplexity summary looks quite good and comprehensible, assuming it is correct. Anyway, now I have a thread to pull on.
