Check PSD Fill Opacity Before Exporting a Styled Game Button

A button has a clear center and a glowing edge in the PSD. After export, the outline vanishes or the center comes back solid. Use a small fixture to check the two opacity controls and see how the export handles the layer style.

Duplicate a single stroked shape

Place a solid shape on a transparent canvas and add an outside stroke in Normal mode. Leave room around it. In copy A, set Fill to 0% and overall opacity to 100%. In copy B, leave Fill at 100% and set overall opacity to 0%. In Photoshop, A should retain its stroke and B should disappear. Save a reference PNG of A with the intended appearance.

Check the center and the stroke separately

1. Sample the center. It should remain transparent in A.
2. Sample the outside stroke and inspect the canvas edge. If only the outermost pixels disappear, check the crop or canvas bounds as well.
3. Compare the output against the reference over both light and dark backgrounds. If the exporter drops the style, composite the individual button in a working copy and keep the editable PSD.

For a runtime tint or outline change, deliver editable pieces or reproduce the effect in the receiving project. Use the same reference to check size, alignment and transparency.

Prepare a sample with the Tooliva tool, then run the checks in the target environment.
