I have received a PSD that has a semi transparent image in it. I know the image is semitransparent because I see the Photoshop checkered background behind it. When I look at the layers I see one layer and the fill and opacity of that layer is 100%.
When I use the color picker / eye dropper tool the color it finds does not show alpha information. It also shows the "incorrect" color. For example, if I click on a pixel that is nearly completely transparent, it looks like light gray, it shows full red #FF0000 in the color picker window.
If PS is showing me the correct color value but with no transparency how do I get the transparency value?
Backstory: I'm trying to match a color and not able to do it.
