Change the opacity of a layer or directly in the tool
Hello, it would be nice if you could change the opacity of a layer without a mask. I like to draw the shadows with the Blob Tool and have to reduce the opacity of each path after each step. It would be easier if each path automatically had a previously set opacity. Alternatively, you could make this setting in the options of the tool itself. Thank you

To affect an opacity of a layer, you should open Layers panel and target the layer by clicking a small round marker next to its name. Then set the opacity you want in Transparency panel — it will be applied to the layer itself.
That is not very intuitive at first, but becomes very clear after you get it.
But still there is a room to improvement.
