PCBNew - filled zones don't respond immediately to layer opacity change

Description

If I set layer opacity to 100% filled zones stay around 80%. If I decrease opacity for that copper layer, filled zones seem to keep that delta and always have lower opacity. There is no visible change in opacity from around 20% to 0%

  1. Set layer opacity to 100% and look how it affects your filled zones
  2. Try to lower opacity and verify how it affects tracks vs zones
