Description Manga Tengu 2020-08-20 12:07:05 UTC 
Making a layer visible or not is not taken into account in the undo history.
You can not open a file, disable a rough layer, or enable a missing layer and save. You need to make a "dummy" operation for a * to appear next to the file name.

Also sometimes when undoing, if layers are not set back in place as they were, you can have a hard time with your history.

What about giving the ability to take layer visibility into account in undos.?

Perhaps we should recover undo for layer properties, but make it compressible?

Hi, Manga!

Could you start a discussion for it on krita-artists? I remember that not having undo for layer properties was an explicit painter's wish. Perhaps they changed their opinion on that?

I thought of something but I found it overkill:
having an undo that ignores layer state and having one which doesn't

Yes let's do that !

No, we are not going to put visibility changes in the undo stack and we're also not going to make an option for that. What still is a valid issue is that the document should me marked modified, but that has already been reported.
