Describes how destination <a href='undocumented#Pixel'>pixel</a> is replaced
with a combination of itself and source <a href='undocumented#Pixel'>pixel</a>.
<a href='#Blend_Mode'>Blend_Mode</a> may use source, destination, or both.
<a href='#Blend_Mode'>Blend_Mode</a> may operate on each
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html'>Color</a> component
independently, or may allow all source <a href='undocumented#Pixel'>pixel</a>
components to contribute to one destination
<a href='undocumented#Pixel'>pixel</a> component.
<a href='#Blend_Mode'>Blend_Mode</a> does not use adjacent pixels to determine
the outcome.
<a href='#Blend_Mode'>Blend_Mode</a> uses source and read destination
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html#a918cf5a3a68406ac8107f6be48fb906e'>Alpha</a>
to determine written destination
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html#a918cf5a3a68406ac8107f6be48fb906e'>Alpha</a>;
both source and destination
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html#a918cf5a3a68406ac8107f6be48fb906e'>Alpha</a>
may also affect written destination
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html'>Color</a> components.
Regardless of how
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html#a918cf5a3a68406ac8107f6be48fb906e'>Alpha</a>
is encoded in source and destination <a href='undocumented#Pixel'>pixel</a>,
nearly all <a href='#Image_Info_Color_Type'>Color_Types</a> treat it as ranging
from zero to one. And, nearly all <a href='#Blend_Mode'>Blend_Mode</a>
algorithms limit the output so that all results are also zero to one.
Two exceptions are
<a href='https://api.skia.org/SkBlendMode_8h.html#ad96d76accb8ff5f3eafa29b91f7a25f0'>SkBlendMode</a>::<a href='#SkBlendMode_kPlus'>kPlus</a>

permits computing

and <a href='https://api.skia.org/SkColor_8h.html'>Color</a> component values
larger than one. For <a href='#Image_Info_Color_Type'>Color_Types</a> other than

permits values outside the zero to one range. It is up to the client to ensure
that the result is within the range of zero to one, and therefore well-defined.

Draw geometry with transparency using
<a href='#Blend_Mode_Overview_Porter_Duff'>Porter_Duff</a> compositing does not
combine transparent source pixels, leaving the destination outside the geometry
untouched.
