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 Is it now hidden somewhere or has it been replaced by another mode?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

Tu vas dire que je suis tétu, mais si tu places les deux menus anglais/français côte à côte Screen est bien en lieu et place de superposition; Après si tu testes dans les deux langues tu obtiens bien le même résultat…

PS : pour passer totshop en anglais il fautle fermer, ajouter un suffixe . truc(ou autre) au fichier tw10428_Photoshop_fr_FR.dat dans le dossier Locales et redémarrer

Après c'est peut-etre une mauvaise traduction et ils auraient dû mettre Incrustation à la place de Superposition et lycée de versailles… Mais j'en doute ça fait des années que c'est comme ça.
