In Sketch, do you prefer using layer opacity or fill opacity, and why?
Both can produce the same results.
Layer opacity pros:
- Can use keyboard shortcuts (1, 2 … 0 etc) to quickly set layer opacity.
- Can use the layer opacity slider to quickly set 0% or 100%.
- It controls strokes as well.
Fill opacity pros:
- Shared styles render more accurately in the popup menu.
- Strokes and other fills can be different opacities.
Which do you prefer?
