           The Opacity slider sets the transparency level for the

           render and a lower setting results in a more transparent one.

          If this option is toggled on, the tool behaves like
          the Pencil tool, in the sense that there is no
          anti-aliasing, and pixels are affected in an all-or-nothing
          way, even if it is being used with a soft brush.
