WHen I was reading something it says:"Multiplies the inverse of the paint and base colors." I was confused. Does it means reverse the paint colour first,then mutiply it with the base colour? Or reverse all the paint colour and base colour respectively, then multiply them?
Thank you very much!

    I think it means:

    inverted paint color * inverted base color

    What you're quoting there seems to be the description of screen blend mode which would be :

    color = 1.0 - ((1.0- baseColor) * (1.0 - blendColor))

    example

    say you screen blend red and green. Inverting them gives cyan and magenta. multiplying cyan and magenta gives blue and inverting blue gives yellow.
