RESULT = (BASE * ALPHA) + (BACKGROUND * (1-ALPHA))

RGB of the Base Color values specify the color of the effect being drawn. Alpha value specifies how solid it is. RGB and Alpha are independent. To make the effect fade out, reduce its Alpha value while leaving RGB unchanged. Notable Values: Alpha 0% = Keeps all colors the same; Alpha 100% = No transparency. This blend mode is non-commutative.
