Description john@ridgwaydesign.fsnet.co.uk 2019-06-09 09:22:24 UTC
SUMMARY
I had text on two separate layers When I merged the layers I found I could edit the individual pieces of texts. However, the text changes did not appear on screen but the screen indication of the revised area was changed. I found that, if the file was saved and then reloaded, the changes made were now shown.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new document. And type a line of text. (Which produces a vector layer).
2. Create a paint layer.
3. Create another line of text (producing a second vector layer)
4. Move the first vector layer to directly below second vector layer and merge the two vector layers.
5. Modify the items of text (by splitting any of the two statements into two lines.

I have tried to reproduce this on version 4.2.1. However, I found that on merging the two vector layers they became a paint layer. I then found that it was not possible to paint on that layer.

I can't reproduce this bug in krita 4.2.1.

Text layers merged as vectors became one vector layer, its strange you've got a paint layer. maybe there is something different in yout configuration? Also, new vector layer text shapes can be modified, saved and reloaded with no loss of data.
