I guess the question is Min the same as= Darken or Darken Color (as one works off of overall luminance values, whil= e the other calculates the R, G, and B channels separately).

Anyone know a way to use max and min= blending modes in After Effects? I know you can use the Channel Combiner e= ffect, but it's 8bit only. 3rd party plug-ins?


Isn't max and min the same as Lighten and Darken t= ransfer modes?
