Description charlotte130473 2017-05-28 01:34:53 UTC
I just installed Krita today after hearing how good it is. I had many of my digital artist friends suggest this platform to me. However, i went onto it and almost every feature is grey and wont let me access anything. I cant do anything. Im unsure if this is a bug or a misunderstanding of how to use the program. I did search up on websites and the guide provided on the website but nothing worked. I want to add layers. I clicked on the layers tab at the top, went to new but everything was grey and i couldn't access anything. I also tried clicking 'Ins' to add layers, but not to my surprise, it didnt work. 

Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope for you to get back to me soon. 
From,
     Charlotte

It's probably not that; if the gui elements like toolbar buttons and so on are grayed out, it's more likely that there is no image open. Try to create or open an image first.
