Description reptillia39 2018-02-23 04:08:27 UTC
Due to the last report I have made, and at some point, it might have been a mistake and I don't know for sure, but it gave me a idea. I would love to know if I have made major changes to my document at any time like a note placed as a docker or a message placed as a docker or when I switch into another document. Something to tell me something went wrong, and some way to attempt to reverse that. This would help reduce incidents like the ones in my last report. It should be a option to say for the least.

Warning dialogs are seldom read by the user. We do warn when saving to a format that doesn't support all the features the user has used in the document, but will not warn when doing somethign destructive. You're supposed to know what you're doing.

So, if I save to .kra, I will know I have made a mistake? Yes, people are supposed to know what they're doing, but I don't think it'd be a bad idea to have some sort of note like [Bit-Depth Changed;Converted to CMYK] in the title or something with exclamation mark. Converting to CMYK reduces color info, and changing to lower depth destroys info.

Nothing in Krita will change your colorspace or channel depth without the user taking an explicit action. And no, we're not going to popup a dialog "You're converting to CMYK, are you sure that you understand what CMYK is and what it is for? Please read the manual first!".
