The description was not very clear but this is exactly what it was about)

            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&#39;t found something like this in Gimp

      That&#39;s the idea, but exactly &quot;the combined transparency (alpha
      channels) of the layers under the new layer&quot; is not &quot;copied&quot;  to
      the new layer, you still paint on the whole page, as with any
      other layer blend mode (meaning if you turn it back to Normal
      blend mode the &quot;blend effect&quot; disapear…)<br>
      <br>
      I use this painting/layer blend mode on TVPaint (the best
      commercial Painting application to me ;) )<br>
      (There was an open beta for Linux but it was usable until January
      1st, I don&#39;t think there is a new one yet. If you can try the win
      or mac demo)<br>
      <br>
      Also this blend mode is in Open Source app SYNFIG STUDIO !!! it&#39;s
      a vector program but the Onto mode is there (with a few original
      useful others, like Straight and Straight Onto…)<br>

    Ah... ok... now i understand. This mode is meant for layer
    compositing.<br>
    I see how it works. It would be no problem to add this blend mode.<br>
    When/if i get a developer account and everything is all right with
    the &quot;blending modes&quot; patch so<br>
    it can be applied, I can add this mode... would only take a few
    minutes :)<br>
