Photoshop unies all blending options in the Layer Style dialog box, making it easier for you to locate and apply blending effects. Choose Blending Options from the Layers palette menu to display the dialog box. If youve already opened the Layer Style dialog box to apply a layer effect, you can access the blending options by clicking Blending Options: Default at the top of the Styles list.
