Hi. I think it might be useful to know the reasons for changing how layers are named by default.

I don't understand. I think, layer number should just increase every time when it adding.

Thanks for your comment!

Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team

The number starts from the number of layers in the image when reloading the image, not the last used number. Theoretically, we could save the state of the layer numbering, but only to .kra files, and then we'd have an inconsistency with other file types. I think we'll keep it this ways.

I understand. This is not really important thing. I worry about some kind of layers conflicts because of it names. 

Thank you.

Layers have an internal unique id, so having more than one layer with the same name isn't going to confuse Krita.
