Description Michel T Gonzalez 2017-02-06 06:12:44 UTC
From the documentation ( https://docs.krita.org/Layers#Hot_keys_and_Sticky_Keys ):
"Shift + left mouse button on the eye-icon for hidding all but the current layer."

This feature is broken as Shift + LMB on the eye icon hides the current layer as if the key modifier had no effect.

Tested on Krita 3.1.2 (64-bit) on Windows 7 64-bit: Stacked a few brush stroke layers, selected one layer and tried the key combination on the eye icon.

I wonder when this broke, and whether it broke when we started using shift-click to select multiple layers, but it is broken...

I think it disappeared with the new layers docker.

I was talking with Dmitry and it sounds like this was removed as Wolthera pointed out. It also sounds like it wasn't working correctly before as well. The behavior should be the following:

1. Shift + Clicking an eye icon on a layer hides all layers except the one  clicked on
2. Shift + Clicking an eye icon again will restore the layers to its previous state

It doesn't sound like there is a state management right now for the layers, so there isn't a way to restore the layer visibility to what it was previously. That will have to be added as well with this.

I made an implementation (currrently on merge request) But now Im doubtfull this feature make sense when "isolate layer" does something very similar.

The shift + click on the patch hides all layers except the layers needed for the  clicked layer to be visible (it will not hide their children also). A scon dclick restores the state as it was before. However because there are some other eyes present dmitry found it very confusing.

I don't know how this feature is supposed to look, should we disable all eye icons except the one that was clicked?
