GP draw over old stroke when pressure strength is on

When Grease Pencil have Pressure strength on, it draws lighter stroke at the beginning. When continue drawing without raising pencil, new stroke goes under old, lighter stroke.

Maybe there should be option for ink drying, so new stroke goes over old stroke. Or is there yet? Couldn't find by searching. Here the lighter line is the beginning of drawing. Screenshot 2023-09-08 153955.png

That's what the "Self Overlap" option in the material's Stroke settings is for Self Overlap

Awesome, thank you! I searched in Draw Mode tool options under brush settings. Should it be also there?

How about, that it would be checked ON as default, which is logical for how drawing works in real life, it goes on top of earlier drawings?

No problem. I'm assuming there's a reason why it's not on by default... My best guess would be that drawing the strokes with self overlap enabled is slower, so it's more performant to only draw with it for the strokes that need it. Just a guess though.
