Description jsvrp.gw 2006-10-18 14:32:49 UTC
Version:           1.6.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

For example: When I use a certain of type of brush and I close Krita and continue the next day with the document, I like have the same brush back. I can't always remember which I've brush used. Same with colors, line width, etc.

It would even be better to save those kind of settings in the .kra-file.

Cheers,

Jeroen

Hi,

We've got a super handy preset docker now that makes life much easier. When consulting with artists deevad, m4v and n-pigeon we came to the conclusion that saving the active brush in the .kra file wouldn't improve the workflow, so I'm closing this wish.

You've come to the conclusion, but I as another user and former UX and UI developer agree with Jeroen jsvrp.gw@gmail.com 

Saving the current settings to the .kra will save time. Every time I load my .kra file I have to set my grids and guides all over again.

I want to start my project where I left it off, not reconfigure Krita all over again before I get down to work.

This is a pretty standard feature for a vast majority of software.

Even a text editor such as Kate remembers where I was in the document when I last closed it.

Please do not change the resolution of a bug if you're not an active member of the Krita team. Especially not seven years later. This will not increase the chance of anyone actually implementing it.

If you feel this is a desirable thing to have, please first start a discussion on the Krita forum to discuss your ideas; post possible mock-ups and work with other users to create a good proposal. Convince us, developers, and me, the project maintainer that this is a good idea and will provide significant benefit. Bugzilla is not the place for that discussion.

Wishes just reported to bugs.kde.org have about zero chance of getting implemented in any case. See https://krita.org/en/item/ways-to-help-krita-work-on-feature-requests/ why that is.
