No, "alpha lock" locks alpha painting on the canvas where it
is activated only.<br>
This is not the same thing. <br>
with blending mode I can have several painted layer under and
paint only onto them.. <br>
all this in a group layer of course to don't paint on the

Do you mean when you have several other layer and you create a new
layer on top of them and paint<br>
on the new layer, then the combined transparency (alpha channels) of
the layers under the new layer<br>
is copied to the new layer and the color is used from the brush?<br>
If you mean this, it would actually be a cool idea. Would be pretty
useful (at least for me :D), but this is not really<br>
a blending mode (i mean, yes it somehow is but not really :D). I
think the brush code would need some modifications for that. Can you
tell me a program that support this (so i can try it out). I haven't
found something like this in Gimp or Photoshop.<br>
