Hi Konstantin, thanks for the suggestion, but the problem is in this case while drawing the outline and shape are created at the same time, and they should have different opacity and/or blend modes, but I cannot create each in a separate group directly..
I may not have this problem if it was easily possible to auto-create shape layers corresponding to selected outline layers, afaik if the shape is not created when drawing outline it's not straight forward to create a new correspong fill shape. Or is there a new magic feature I'm missing?
