Created attachment 91381 [details] [^ screenshot : the feature location in the Edit menu ] Hi, the feature "Edit" > "Paste into new image" is really cool with new MVC. I would like to ask if we can get a default keyboard shortcut for it. Raghukamath on IRC proposed CTRL + Shift + N , and I think it's a good one ( N being a mnemonic for New ). I'm --of course-- open to any other proposal if CTRL + Shift + N is reserved for something later.
+1 for making this a default shortcut
ought to be a junior job.

Ah, yes, master. It seems to work perfectly fine, so I'll push it!

Sorry for the late response but you need to know that Ctrl Shift N is the shortcut for New Layer n Adobe Photoshop. Also Corel http://howto.corel.com/en/c/Creating_an_Image_Hose_in_Corel_Painter This creates an inconsistency, this will be a problem. Since this is a.type of Paste, another shortcut might be more appropriate, a variation on Ctrl V perhaps.
Hi Alan, In Krita, new layer = 'Insert' key. But unified shortcuts are appreciated, especially for artist using many apps. I have no problem to trade this one for another one, especially if it helps. So, to summarize : Create a new Layer = Ctrl+N ( instead of Insert ) Create a new image from clipboard = Ctrl+Shift+V Maybe you'll need to open a new 'wish' bug report, and quote this old one, because this one is in "Resolved Fixed" status.
typo error : So, to summarize : Create a new Layer = Ctrl+*Shift*+N ( instead of Insert ) Create a new image from clipboard = Ctrl+Shift+V
Just FYI. CTRL+SHIFT+V is already assigned to paste at cursor in Krita. I don't know what that does. (as it does not work currently) I assume it is for pasting content where the cursor is. Also +1 for changing the shortcut so that users migrating from other programs feel at home in krita. Create a new "paint" layer = CTRL+SHIFT +N Create Image from clipboard = CTRL+SHIFT+V Other familiar shortcuts which are not yet default in Krita would be Create group layer = Ctrl+G Merge Selected layers = CTRL+ALT+E ( it is CTRL+E in photoshop same as merge layers, i suggest adding alt to avoid clash as in krita merge and merge selected are different) Image to new size = ALT+CTRL+I Resize canvas = ALT + CTRL+C ( currently in krita this is shortcut to align to center, i presume it is for text) Feather selection = SHIFT+F6 One last request would be for paint bucket tool In photoshop it is 'G' for paint bucket as well as gradient and holding 'SHIFT' while pressing 'G' switches between these two. I request to make the shortcut for "Fill a contiguous area of color with a color, or fill a selection." i.e. the paint bucket tool to have 'SHIFT+G' as shortcut @ Alan Horkan and David, I am marking this report as re-opened if you don't mind. and I suggest making this report a central place for requesting default shortcuts instead of several bug reports I have collated all the shortcuts, as far i can remember and search, for making them default, any additions are welcome What do you guys think? thank you
@Raghavendra >> What do you guys think? I'm ok with it. Thanks for the list.
These all seem sensible. Beyond the most obvious keybindings that nearly every app uses there were only a few in Photoshop I ever got very familiar with but Ctrl Shift N for New Layer was definitely a memorable habit.
I'd hate giving up my beloved Insert key for new layer... It might be shortcut I use most :-). It's also much easier to hit than ctrl-shift-n. But, well... We can have two shortcuts in any case.

The shortcuts seems to have stopped working for me, even if they are listed in default shortcuts. something unusual. They don't work even if i specifically set them in custom shortcuts.
only one shortcut is remained from this wish list to be implemented The add layer alternative shortcut I'll try to add it after that we can close this bug report
Cool. Abhishek hasn't appeared, so I'll commit your other patch to 2.9
