Blending RGB colors

The Blend RGB Colors Using Gamma option controls how RGB colors blend together to produce composite data (for example, when you blend or paint layers using Normal mode). When the option is selected, RGB colors are blended in the color space corresponding to the specified gamma. A gamma of 1.00 is considered "colorimetrically correct" and should result in the fewest edge artifacts. When the option is deselected, RGB colors are blended directly in the document's color space. The Blend RGB Colors Using Gamma option is available only when Advanced Mode is selected in the Color Settings dialog box.
