# sourceOut

A mode that you use to paint the source image onto the transparent parts of the background, while erasing the background.

## Declaration

```swift
static var sourceOut: GraphicsContext.BlendMode { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion This mode implements the equation R = S*(1 - Da) where R is the composite image. S is the source image. Da is the source background’s alpha value.
