Bug with low opacity layer on transparent background?
#1
Hello everyone,

I've been using Gimp 2.8 for years and since 2.10, there are some behaviors I really don't get. I searched for hours on the net without finding solutions because I think I miss keywords.
It's really simple, I have three layers, from the top to the bottom :

- Random white text 
- Layer opacity 10 which is a glow aura of the text 
- Black background

When I switch the black background to a transparent, the aura is diminished to the final export (see attachment). Why? My low opacity layer is the same whatever the situation, it's not supposed to behave according to the layer below it.

It gave me a lot of headaches for a long time. This behavior is clearly different from previous version of Gimp. I let 2.10 to the side for a long time because it literally destroys a lot of projects and I suspected a bug, but now it's 2.10.30 and it's still there. In 2.8 and before, layer is a layer, that's all, it doesn't disappear or change because of what you did on another layer. I feel like a total dumbass but can't manage to find anyone talk about it.

Thank you everyone by advance!
