“Add” transparency

/

/

/

Here we have two images on top of each other. One of them is PowerClip’d inside a text frame and has a uniform “Add” transparency operation assigned to it.

/

/

In this example, we used a simple pink text frame with an outline. The “Add” transparency operation is only assigned to the fill of the object, leaving the outline of the text solid

“Divide” transparency

/

/

This is also an image PowerClip’d inside a text frame. The PowerClip’d image is different than the background and has a “Divide” transparency operation assigned to it making it slightly visible.

“Lightness” transparency

/

/

In this case, we have a solid color text frame with a uniform “Lightness” transparency effect and a drop shadow. The shadow has a large offset that also has the “Lightness” merge mode assigned.

“Multiply” transparency

/

/

An outlined text frame with a “Multiply” transparency operation to both the fill and the outline which has a slightly darker color. The text frame also has a “Perspective” effect applied.

“Subtract” transparency

/

/

This is an example of two text frames with a “Perspective” effect as well as a “Subtract” transparency operation applied on them. Both text frames have different colors.

Logical “And” transparency

/

/

A solid-colored green shape is strategically placed on top of a grayscale background image. Assigning a logical “And” merge mode as a transparency operation makes the object blend with the background, coloring the part that the green shape covers.

“Difference” transparency

/

/

Here we have a solid-colored text frame with a “small glow” drop shadow. The text and its shadow have a “Difference” merge mode assigned to them.
