Hi CARTOONDJ,
It is a limitation of SBP (2010 at least), if you copy from a different layer (which more than likely has 100% opacity) and paste it on a layer that has a transparency, the layer you paste it on will assume 100% opacity but keep the “transparency”. The program believes you’re merging 2 layers and defaults to 100% opacity (your transparency becomes a color and not an opacity)
The work-around is to set the opacity you want on that layer before you paste into it.
If you can post an example of what you’re describing, we can probably find another work around for it as well.
In general rule, only use transparency/lowered opacity if you want to merge it with another layer later on. The cutting and pasting between layers is preferable only if the layers all have the same opacity.
