Hi,

Today, while testing Krita5 I had issue with Liquify transform: super slow on a layer; mega slow on a group. It felt at first like a big regression of performances.

The big slow-down comes from the new feature "Use in-stack preview in Transform Tool". A workaround to desactivate it is to go to settings > Performances > Instant preview and uncheck it. I found it thanks to Tiar on IRC.

I think the two modes ("in-stack rendering" and legacy way of rendering) have both pros and cons depending the task required. Getting full WYSIWYG is great; but it has a big cost on performance so having the option to desactivate it quickly would be great. 

When I had the slow-down, I immediately tried alone to check if something changed in the "Tool-Option" of Transform Tool. That's why I think this is a good place to also have a toggle switch here.

Oh, super for the "Fast", "Fast with Instant Preview", and "Accurate" list. I'll test it. 

I guess it is too late to backport this one to krita 5.0 branch? (because of the new strings for i18n efforts)
Comment 4 Halla Rempt 2021-09-21 10:47:20 UTC
Yes, this is one for 5.1, I'm afraid.
Comment 5 David REVOY 2021-09-21 10:54:15 UTC
Ok, it will be part of 5.0 "Known issues".

This got backported to 5.0, so I am closing this.
