When importing a photo and scaling it, the selected color is too dark to see other layers. I want you to be able to change the transparency of the selected color as well. I prepared a movie to explain, but the attachment seems to be impossible now.

I’m not sure I understand the question, but You can reduce the opacity of the imported image in the images tab, and then make your scaling adjustment.  
Hope this helps

Then, transparency returns when you select the image again, it is hard to see.

I would like to attach a video for explanation, but I can not do it for new users. I would also like to report a bug. .
