To sum up, there are two primary types of masks in Photoshop: layer masks and clipping masks. Layer masks use values of gray to assign levels of transparency to specific portions of a layer or group of layers while clipping masks use the transparency of one layer to define that of a different layer or group of layers
Opacity is the transparency of your layer that is featured. It is useful for safe editing in Photoshop, opacity is used to 'dim down' a certain object and is commonly used in masking to see layers behind the layer that uses opacity. Higher opacity will make the layer more opaque. Lower opacity will make the layer more transparent. Hope this helps :)
Whenever I create a new layer on Photoshop, it's always created above the active layer. Is it possible to change that behavior and make it so that whenever I create a new layer it's created below the active layer instead? My objective with this is so that whenever I import an image it goes below the previous one and not above.
