Description mvowada 2018-03-17 18:09:47 UTC
(Krita Version: 4.1.0-pre-alpha (git 97015cd) - Ubuntu 14.04)

When I use a "default" template, at next start I'm presented with a different template to use.

    1) create a new document using a default template
    2) restart
    3) go to create a new document

Actual Results: a different template is selected.
Expected Results: select the just used template.

(it happens in Krita 3.3.3 as well)

I think default template hasn't worked since the move to Multiple Documents in 2.9. Where do you see this 'default template'?

In my case, it always defaults to the "Texture 1024x1024" template (it might be a different one for you).

It doesn't happen after using a custom template, only after using a default one.

Comment 4 Halla Rempt 2018-03-18 12:09:26 UTC
I wonder whether it's dependent on the template chosen. If I choose, for instance, the Manga template, then that template will be pre-selected next time I start Krita.

The last used template is stored in the kritarc:

[TemplateChooserDialog]
AlwaysUseTemplate=
DetailsPaneSplitterSizes=241,358
FullTemplateName[$e]=$HOME/dev/i-3.3/share/krita/templates/comics/.source/Manga-JpTemplate.kra
LastReturnType=Template


So I wonder what that section says in your case?

Hi Boudewijn, thanks for the hint, could be that it's an appimage?

The issue happens even using the Manga template. Once closed Krita (btw, appimage), the "kritarc" file says:

[TemplateChooserDialog]
AlwaysUseTemplate=
DetailsPaneSplitterSizes=249,347
FullTemplateName[$e]=/tmp/.mount_krita-ic5XWA/usr/share/krita/templates/comics/.source/Manga-JpTemplate.kra
LastReturnType=Template

however, at the next start, the highlighted template is again Texture 1024x1024.

(Using a "custom" template it gets correctly highlighted at next start...)

Yes, it probably is the appimage, which has the temp mount path inside.

Try to restore to the last used template

If we're running from an appimage, the full path to a default
provided template will include the mount point, which changes
from run to run. So, if we cannot find the last used template,
compare by filename as well.
