When loading an XCF file with layers named with unicode characters (for example, Hebrew), the layer names in Krita look broken - shows the ASCII characters for each byte in the UTF-8 sequence. For example, the layer named "בדיקה" looks "בדיקה". When using the Krita native file format for saving and loading images with layers that have unicode names, everything works fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open GIMP and create a new image, name the layer something which uses multi-byte characters in UTF-8. For example, some Hebrew (you can copy the text from the description above) 2. Save the file as XCF 3. Load the file in Krita Actual Results: The layer name is not shown correctly Expected Results: The layer name should be shown exactly like in the GIMP
Hi Oded, Thanks for your report, I can confirm indeed.
