paint mode

Paint mode is not working like the doc says.

When I paint on an image with only one layer with some paint mode, I can paint on it. I don't understand. Modes supposed to be working on two layers, right?

Even on two layers, the result is the same as the image has no additional layers.

What am I missing for paint mode?

Read the bit you clipped out again.

Quote:..imagine that the paint is actually applied to a layer you are working on..

IMAGINE

You use the brush mode to combine colours on the same layer. If you want to use two or more layers, use the appropriate layer mode in the layer dialogue.

This using a paintbrush and magenta colour.

Combining colors. All right. Thanks man.
