Question

Overlay set on pattern-filled layer - disappears entirely?

I have an image open. I added a new layer and filled it with a pattern. The pattern has a transparent background and black text. When I set the blending mode to "overlay" all the text disappears completely. Is it because of the transparent background that this is happening? Shouldn't the text still display?

    Could you post a screenshot with all the pertinent panels opened, also if you could upload the pattern that you are using
