Layer

The Layer Node makes it possible to layer and mix color layers. In the process, existing alpha portions will be taken into consideration as in this example in which the image on top uses an alpha portion to make the layers below it visible.

This functionality reflects for the most part that of the Material System’s Layershader. Any number of elements can be layered and mixed. The mix modes reflect those of the Blend Material Node.
