Cycling through blending modes


    You can quickly cycle through all the blending modes for a selected layer, making it easy to experiment with the results that each mode has on the layer.

To cycle through a layer's blending modes:

  1. Select a layer in the Timeline window.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Hold down Shift and press the plus key (+) to cycle forward through each blending mode.
    • Hold down Shift and press the underscore key (_) to cycle backward through each blending mode.
