New Blend Method
I would like to have a blend method that allows apply effects over a certain region of a composition. Let's call this new Blend Method "X". So the Layer stack would be like this:
Effect Layer (Blend Method: X) Cropping Layer (Blend Method: A) Background Layer (Blend Method: doesn't matter)
A is any Blend Method.
The blend method X would do the following:
Apply the effect over the background using the composite blend method:
Effect Layer (Blend Method Composite) Background Layer ----------------------- Effected Background Layer
Then apply a Straight Onto blend method over the Cropping layer
Effect Background Layer (Blend Method Straight Onto) Cropping Layer --------------------------------------- Cropped Effected Background
Later apply the result on the background using the Cropping Layer Blend Method
Cropped Effected Background (Blend Method A) Background Layer ------------------------------------------- Cropped Effected Background Onto Background
I propose call this X Blend Method: "Cropped Onto"
