Is there a way to mimic Photoshop’s layer blend modes with chart content in HighCharts? For instance, I have two area type series that overlap, and instead of setting opacity on the colors I use (with rgba) I would love to have the overlapping areas set to multiply or linear burn. See attached image for example. Another benefit to this is that the gridlines beneath are even more defined under the colored areas.

[redacted] modern browsers do have some support for blending modes, so this might be possible.
The only browser that currently supports SVG blend modes is Opera through filters,
http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/filters.html#feBlendElement
Another specification is SVG Compositing:

But SVG compositing is not supported by any browser yet.
I don’t think VML supports blending modes either, so I’m afraid you’re out of luck.
