Changing Highlighter Opacity
Make your highlights softer or stronger by adjusting opacity.
TL;DR
Opacity controls how strong or soft the Highlighter's colour looks, set with a 5–100% slider in notebooks and documents or in fixed steps in a Qur'an mushaf. Lower opacity keeps the text readable underneath, while higher opacity gives a bold, solid mark.
The Highlighter (shortcut I) lays colour over text. Opacity controls how strong or soft that colour looks.
Where to Change It
Select the Highlighter (or the Pen), then open its colour and style settings. On a notebook or document draw toolbar there is an opacity slider you can drag from 5% to 100%. In a Qur'an mushaf, the style panel offers opacity steps (roughly 10%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%).
Lower opacity gives a soft, see-through highlight that keeps the text easy to read underneath. Higher opacity gives a bold, solid mark.
Use a soft highlight for general themes, and a stronger one for key ayahs or important revision points.
