Specifying fill opacity

In addition to setting opacity for a layer, which affects any layer styles and blending modes applied to the layer, you can specify a fill opacity for layers. Fill opacity affects pixels painted in a layer or shapes drawn on a layer without affecting the opacity of any layer effects that have been applied to the layer.

To specify fill opacity for a layer:

Do one of the following:

• (Photoshop) In the Layers palette, enter a value in the Fill Opacity text box or drag the Fill Opacity pop-up slider.
• (Photoshop) Double-click a layer thumbnail, choose Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options, or choose Add a Layer Style > Blending Options from the Layers palette menu. Enter a value in the Fill Opacity text box.

Note: To view blending options for a text layer, choose Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options, or choose Blending Options from the Add a Layer Style button at the bottom of the Layers palette menu. (ImageReady) Choose Layer > Layer Style > Blending Options and enter a value in the Fill Opacity text box.
