make filter mask on a layer ->change opacity =>opacity value slider visually returns to 100%. on my system (ubuntu 12.04) the opacity value is applied,and it works. So for me,only the visual representation of the slider is wrong. When I slide again,the slider shows the correct amount till I let go again.
While checking to confirm this bug, I noticed here the slider also always returns to 100%, but the actual value on canvas changes too. (only if I select another layer right after moving the slider, while the layer is still computing with the progress bar on it, it can keep the value I just set.. ) More precisely, it actually always return not to 100%, but to the value of the last selected layer.. Like so if I need to set 20% on the filter mask, I set it on current normal layer, then select mask and see its opacity going to 20%, and I can go back to the first layer set back the opacity value.. Also here, with Transparency-mask, it does exactly like in the first bug description: only the slider always return to the value of last selected layer (by default 100%), keeping the actual value intact. Same for Local Selection layer (though I'm not sure if the "local selection" mask's opacity is supposed to have an effect on the selection opacity, after testing, it doesn't seem to have any affect ..) Note: Filter layers or other layer types don't have this issue, so it happens only with mask-type layers.

Disable opacity and composite op controls for masks These don't make sense for masks, so in the previous code, we'd set the opacity and composite op to the one set on the layer, leading to M +17 -12 krita/plugins/extensions/dockers/defaultdockers/kis_layer_box.cpp http://commits.kde.org/calligra/ad00649eb7f410806e2bbe383287620f70e6b656
