You need to use 'calculations' to do this.
The basic idea is, you have your (1) beginning image, (2) final image and the (3) gradient mask that you'll use for for the fade transition.
You then use 'calculations' dialogue to merge the images (using the gradient mask to control what's being altered). This feature can be used to create new channels - which can then be reinserted as replacement channels.
This allows you to do things like gradually fade into a gaussian blurred version of yr image, giving a faked depth of field. It's really useful.
- If your image is full colour, you need to produce the replacement channel for each colour individually.********
- (1), (2) and (3) should all be individual layers in the same image.********
- I'm trying this later...I might need more help with this "calculations" dialogue.monospaced
