When I add figures they appear first appear solid on the map but when I hit the ok button they turn more opaque and are hard to see.

Is there a way to keep them solid?

Figures are placed 'hidden', so that players won't see them before they should. The semi-transparent look is what the GM sees - the players don't see the figure at all. You can use the figure menu (right-click on the figure to get this) or just the "H" hotkey (while the figure is selected) to un-hide the figure, at which point it becomes visible to the players and totally opaque to you.

Hope that helps!

That's normal behavior. Units are automatically Hidden from the players when they're deployed on the map, in case the GM wishes to make adjustments prior to revealing them to the players (e.g., rotate facing, set disposition, enter in mouseover notes, etc.). In a future release, I may add a checkbox preference to disable auto-hide. In the meantime, just click on the newly-deployed unit and press the [H] hotkey to unhide it.
