The following code works as expected:

EnableLayers()
SetFillStyle(#FILLNONE, 1)
Box(10, 10, 50, 50, #WHITE, {Name="PaintLayer", TintColor=#BLUE, Tint=200})

However, if the line thickness is set to anything but 1, then the Tint is ignored.

Code: Select all

EnableLayers()
SetFillStyle(#FILLNONE, 5)
Box(10, 10, 50, 50, #WHITE, {Name="PaintLayer", TintColor=#BLUE, Tint=200})

Here's a bit more information:

The same behavior can be observed in #VECTORPATH layers.

Code: Select all

EnableLayers()
SetFillStyle(#FILLNONE, 10)
StartPath(1)
AddBoxToPath(1, 0, 0, 100, 100)
DrawPath(1, #CENTER, #CENTER, #WHITE, {TintColor=#BLUE, Tint=100})

Also this problem only shows up when layers are enabled.

That's not a bug, but a feature. When layers are enabled, line thicknesses greater than 1 will automatically be mapped to a layer border. The tint filter, however, applies to the main layer only, not its border, which is why you don't see any tinting. You can try to change the layer border color, though, e.g.

Code: Select all

SetLayerStyle(1, {BorderColor = #BLUE})

That should do the trick.
