[Gimp-user] Can this Darken mode Layer in PS be done somehow on Gimp

Sometimes I like to use video...since it shows you more of what I can only
attempt to explain.

Just to around 15 minutes or so....he repeated the process some 3 - 5 times to
show how it works

I am in real estate, we try to overexpose shots for the windows to fully expose
the outside view.  Trying the bring that through the Ambients and Bright Shots
can be very time consuming....until I saw guys doing this on Photoshop.

But I have tried at least to my ability to duplicate and every effort on my
part, causes the masking to bring the dark window layer through but covers up
the white window frames...unlike what this video shows. ...

So perhaps the values work differently or the order... or perhaps this is just
not possible on Gimp at this time.

I am truly hoping it can be duplicated here and I just don't know what I am
doing wrong :-)

Thanks in advance for your expertise and a great product!
