isolate layer is in a good state right now and should not be changed this is about an extra feature to use in stead or in conjunction with isolate layer apparantly before we could isolate a group and still select a layer in that group to work on ,without canceling isolate mode. it would be good to have a seperate function that works same as seperate layer but only works on groups. and that when you select layers IN that group nothing changes. i have no idea if isolate layer should work when isolate group is active also,it might be a good thing to explore. this was a feature requested by karim on IRC and i do see the usefulness of it. it can hide ALL outside of the group and still work with the active group visible... Maybe it should be active group rather then isolated group? to avoid confusion? but DONT TOUCH isolated layer mode please =D this should be a seperate function as it fills a seperate workflow
it has been suggested that shift+clicking an eye icon would be similar in nature,but it cant be tested out as it's broken for now it also lacks the benefit of having a shortcut for it that can be done with only keyboard
Thanks @Bollebib! Yes it would be cool to have the possibility to isolate a group of layers while being able to edit any layer inside the group and see all of them while editing, That was the case in Krita 3.0 and earlier, here was my initial thread when I was thinking it was a bug, I updated the status to "wishlist." https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=377442 having it as a additional feature would be very helpful in case anyone needs to work in relative context of a number of layers, especially if it's line art without any fill for the whole project: if there are many other groups having line art, then it would make it very hard to work "in context" of a group of layers, for a particular character, or any type of asset/sprite etc. I'm also seeing the "hide all other layers/groups" as a replacement of the "isolate group of layers" so since it's broken it seems for 3.1.2, The last time it worked was on krita 2.9.11.0 from what i have tested. Thanks again for the great new stuff! :)
+1 with Bollebib and Karim on this wish. I would use a "isolate GROUP" feature.
Thanks David! Also if isolate group while being able to edit layers inside (without going out of the isolate mode) is done: Then please add this: If a new layer is added or deleted inside the isolated group, keep isolation mode of the group of layers. That's because in 3.0 and ealrier: adding/deleting a layer from inside the isolated group would turn isolation mode off. Thanks again!
Would be great! :) Or ability to select few layers in stack and toogle isolate on them. It would be very handy feature!

New "Isolate Active Group" Isolation Mode. Users now have two layer isolation mode options. The original "Isolate Active Layer" (context menu item or alt+click) mode that displays only the active layer, as well as a new "Isolate Active Group" (context menu item only for now) mode that displays all of the sibling layers in a given group.
