Description BroskiBaboski 2023-10-06 09:20:47 UTC
SUMMARY
While in the Krita home screen, floating dockers cannot be spawned via menus nor shortcut ("Show dockers" is greyed out). This makes problematic to open a comic project through the comic manager.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Krita (make sure you have a layout with some floating dockers)
2. In the home screen, settings > show dockers
3. Nothing happens

OBSERVED RESULT
Inability to spawn the dockers

EXPECTED RESULT
Dockers should spawn at any time, as it used to work up until 5.1.5
