Description yotsuxp 2026-05-27 21:25:53 UTC 
DESCRIPTION
When using "Insert Hold Frame", either as a keyboard shortcut or via the right-click context menu, Krita crashes.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a blank .kra file.
2. Create at least one or two hold frames on the animation timeline. If there is one frame on the timeline, place that frame somewhere in the middle of the timeline. If there are two frames on the timeline, have a few hold frames in between them.
3. Use "Insert Hold Frame" and/or "Remove Hold Frame" between before the animation frame, or between two animation frames.

OBSERVED RESULT
- Krita crashes the moment "Insert Hold Frame" or "Remove Hold Frame" is used.

Don't free hold frame undo command at scope exit

This was introduced in 0bb591da8096a96682560f723b960f47d597c0e7, which
incorrectly replaced `QScopedPointer::take` with `std::unique_ptr::get`.
This correctly swaps it for `std::unique_ptr::release`.
