Toggle opacity for non-active layers

Help
1

Hello, I saw that you can enable the opacity for non-active layers and this is very useful!
I would like to be able to activate / deactivate it so that I can get a look at the full picture (I also use the preview window but I keep it small).

Is it possible to do that?

Now I’m using the “Flatten visible” command to do this but it’s quite dangerous (last night I saved after flattening all the layers).

Thanks!

hello, lukepass86. yes, you can. there are two ways:

  • go to edit → keyboard shortcuts (or hit ctrl+alt+shift+k) and search for “active”, only one available command should show up: switch nonactive layers opacity. select it and add your shortcut.
  • click with alt on visibility icon of a layer (the eye) - it will become isolated it in solo mode. when you do it again, all layers which were previously set to visible will be visible again.
