[chimera-dev] blending different thresholds/resolution in single image

[Jan Kosinski]

Dear Xin,

I can confirm that, for a similar image https://twitter.com/jankosinski/status/1191458868561399808/photo/1 I rendered separate images for low and the high res map, overlaid them in Adobe Illustrator, and then used a gradient of transparency to blend the images.

Best,
Jan
