I was wondering if there was a way to make it so that a layer is completely transparent, and every pixel behind the layer is inverted, no matter where it is dragged. Kinda like they did in sonic mania, if anyone's played that. I want to be able to drag the mask around and take the effect with it. Can someone help out?

  • Add transparent layer
  • Fill shape with white
  • Set layer to Difference mode
See added disc to the right

Thank you so much!

Follow Up:
Can you add other effects to it, such as desaturation or hue chroma differences?

Perhaps. Just a matter of findind the right layer content and blend mode. Add a layer group, put your effect layers in it, and move the group.
