Hi, I wanted to request BLEND IF sliders for advanced layer blending, that could appear within a layer's details window. I would love it to be just like Photoshop, which has 2 sliders in a layer's settings. These sliders allow you to mask the layer based on the luminosity of the layer itself, or the layers behind it. It makes it extremely quick isolate effects to lit or shadowed areas, knock out complex images like water splashes or hair. It is just great for compositing textures, and it would really be a great addition to Art Studio Pro! Thank you for your consderation!

There's a lot of tutorials out there about how the BLEND IF sliders work in photoshop for reference- here is a simple one! Photoshop Advanced Blending - The Blend If Sliders
