Opacity Droplet: Interface is confusing...

[RyanDuff613]

Not a bug, just noticing myself needing to take a few extra minutes to figure out how to adjust the opacity on a selected element. I expect the menu for fill options to include the opacity adjustment, then realize I need to set this option by entering a number in the adjacent field.

To do: add information to the user guide on adjusting opacity

@RyanDuff613 I'm curious, after using this setup for awhile, do you still miss having opacity in the Popout, or does Sketchpad setup feel natural to you?

Hi Michael, The Sketchpad UI has become intuitive for me as I've used it more. I guess I'd still like to have the ability to manipulate opacity as I'm choosing a fill option but it's not a huge hindrance to bounce back and forth between them. I'm coming from an Adobe background so I have to break some habits when working with a new platform. I don't think a new user would have too much difficulty figuring out how to change opacity.

Thanks for your input!
You make a good point about bouncing back and forth.
I'll think more about the Palette, the whole thing could use some refactoring and new functionality.
