Why is my photo showing as if they are on a low opacity over a transparent background?

Help,

I'm stymied. I'm using PS Beta. I made a copy of a layer CTRL+J at 100% opacity yet it shows as if it is a low opacity layer over a blank transparent layer, i.e. showing a diamond grid. If I flatten it the "artifacts" disappear. If I put a black layer under it the "artifacts" disappear which is a bit nuts since the top layer is 100% opaque.

Any ideas why & how to combat / correct this glitch?

If you zoom the screenshot you can see the pattern and the other with the black layer underneath with no pattern.

Thanks

Hi Wendy. Thanks for the screen shots, but they are not terribly useful as they are. We need to see the entire workspace at full res with document window and layers panel visible. In your case, we'd probably need multiple screen shots at different stages to follow your workflow.

This is currently a problem for me too. Here is my full screenshot:

You need to have the problem layer selected so you/we can see what its Opacity is set to.

It's going to show something like 10% which might have been set by hitting the layer opacity shortcut. i.e. if you hit the 1 key with Layer 2 selected, its opacity wqould be set to 10%
