</div>Hum indeed, that would break the color-to-alpha filter. So what we need is a<br>
composite op that do like COMPOSITE_OVER for color channels but copy the ALPHA<br>
channel of the filter result into the destination.<br></blockquote><div><br>Argh.. Gmail doesn't add the CC's when replying.<br><br>Btw, don't all the composites should be fixed then?<br><br>I think the composition should look like with two stages:<br>
1) we blend two devices, not counting any selections and write in to the temporary device<br>2) then we blend the result into the destination device using the selection value as an alpha channel for temporary device. At this stage the original alpha channel of the temporary device will be dealt as a regular channel.<br>
