    Hi all,

    I'm still fairly new to Inkscape so I'm sure I'm missing a detail that may be ovbvious to others. I have 2 files that both make use of an Alpha channel. However, despite both of these images reporting that they are full white and full alpha (#FFFFFFFF), one is  darker than the other. I have checked the fill color for both Inkscape files, and they both report to be the same value. Same for the page backgrounds. What am I overlooking?

    Thank in advance!

    I've figured it out! I had  applied a mask and the masks Alpha setting was at 75%. I undid the masking, made the mask my Alpha mask for the decals I'm working on,  and  then I could set it's Alpha setting to 100%  and it turned bright white, as expected.
