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?

Tim
