Keyboard Shortcuts of Photoshop Blending Modes
The most ideal approach to comprehend or figure out the blend modes is to utilize your
keyboard. When you have lots of work but you are running out of time, then you can use the
blending mode shortcuts. The easy method for using blending mode is to choose a layer, then
select a blending mode, next hold down Shift and press (+) to go ahead or Shift and press (–) to
step in reverse through them.
Multiply Blending Mode
Click on the option that says ” Normal”. It is located on the top of the Layers panel. Then you’ll
see a drop-down menu that has more than 20 blending mode choices. Naturally, all layers show
up with a blending mode of Normal.
You can also use this option through the keyboard shortcuts. Just press Shift+Alt+M for
Windows and Shift+Option+M for Mac. For example, create a Photoshop document with two
layers. On the top layer is an image of a mime artist that has a lot of white or light shading
pixels. Another layer that is at the bottom layer is a close up picture of a flower.
Now, when you will convert it to Multiply, the entirety of the white pixels is taken out. So you
can see underneath that line the dim pixels in the meme artist’s face and in the folds of his
outfit are retained. These dark pixels appear darker as well.
