Suggestions A) In Section 1.2 While this specification provides the author the choice of many Porter Duff compositing operators and many blending modes, the simple alpha compositing model forced a single Porter Duff compositing operator and a single blend mode. While this specification provides the author the choice of many Porter Duff compositing operators and many blending modes, the simple alpha compositing model forced a single Porter Duff compositing operator and a single blend mode, WHICH IS SPECIFICALLY SRCOVER COMPOSITE MODE AND NORMAL BLEND MODE RESPECTIVELY. More emphasis needs to be placed on this factor. Implementors with decent design should not be concerned with simple alpha compositing or the formula. Only the formula for SRCOVER and NORMAL blend mode surely?(Because is same thing Yes?) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B) Section 6.1.1 This is the default attribute which specifies no blending. The blending formula simply select the source color. SHOULD IT NOT SAY "SIMPLY SELECTS THE SOURCE COLOR"? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- C) 5.1.7. Destination In NEED TO INSERT A LINE BREAK BEFORE THE ao Fa = 0 Fb = ás co = áb x Cb x ás áo = áb x ás SHOULD BE Fa = 0 Fb = ás co = áb x Cb x ás áo = áb x ás ------------------------------------------------------------------------- D) Reference bitmaps Would be nice to have reference bitmaps. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- E) Alpha Adjustment/Masking/Opacity It would be nice if there was a section or some more emphasis as a guide to implementors on the fact that any alpha adjustments can simply be made before the blending function. Drawing to a layer with some masks then works fine. Then drawing the layer to the background using "srcover" composite mode allows the opacity and any further masking to be applied just before the srcover and all works well.
