Description Lukas Remis 2021-05-10 07:18:24 UTC 
SUMMARY

When adding filter layer (in Ubuntu), the settings window is obscuring large part of the image and can't be moved, as it's "attached" to the main window. Also the image under the window get's dimmed, so the usage and preview of any adjustement filter, like levels or color correction is pointless, as you don't see what you are really doing. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add filter layer in Ubuntu


OBSERVED RESULT

Filter window obscuring and dimming the image.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Sorry, this is not a bug in Krita, but a "feature" in Gnome.
Comment 2 Lukas Remis 2021-05-10 07:55:24 UTC 
The filter setting windows from "Filter" menu are not causing this. So I would call it a bug.
Comment 3 Halla Rempt 2021-05-10 08:19:05 UTC 
Given that it's Gnome that does this, it's not a Krita issue. If you dislike the behaviour, you need to tweak Gnome.
