What happened to the transfer mode "screen" for the layers? Is it now hidden somewhere or has it been replaced by another mode?
Then why?

Reset preferences.

 

There's no way they can remove Screen - that's one of the basic and most important blend modes (the inverse of Multiply).

Thank you, I'll ask my students to do so on monday and will keep you updated. What preference action would make a specific blending mode to disappear? Mystery.

It's still there in the USA version, and definitely gives different results than other modes.

 

The way it was explained to me was Screen is like projecting two images on the same screen, and Overlay is like placing two piees of film on top of each other.

That would mean the French ( or EU) version of photoshop got rid of this blending mode? Weird.

I noticed that on students computer yesterday while teaching them compositing.
Here is the French version, as you can see, there is no more "écran" / "Screen" mode, only remain: Eclaircir (lighten) or Superposition that is closer to "Add" than "screen" result

De mémoire le mode de fusion Screen est Superposition en français.
