[Solved] Fill Whole Layer not working correctly? Fill tool works fine.

I am using the Fill Whole Layer option to apply a base material to a model. But it looks different from the preview window. 

Using the Fill Tool, the result looks much better and really close to the preview window. See here:ExampleFail.thumb.jpg.26d038e585c209afe48c2016cc1d0185.jpg

 

What am I doing wrong?! 

Using Version 4.8.10 (DX64)

Watched the video... I think I see the problem. Videos do help...

You are on the brush tool and opacity is set at 77%. When you right click on the layer and choose fill whole layer it only fills up to the opacity percentage.

Which you switch to the bucket fill, the opacity is set a 100%

The brush and bucket fill can have their own separate settings on all 3 channels.  

I tested and when opacity is set at 100% for the brush tool (right clicking a layer and fill whole layer )and the bucket fill tool is set for 100% the result is the same.

I normally use the layer in the bucket fill tool panel to avoid not noticing the change in settings, keeping my brush settings separate from my bucket fill settings. That depends upon the model or workflow too and is also an artist call.
