Description Jo 2018-04-07 21:31:37 UTC
Would be great to know how much time we spent (i'm minutes) on each layer. To work better with our time at hand

I'm still interested to see this feature coming to life in krita. Time management is crucial to keep motivated too. This feature is useful for experienced artists who need to deal with life too, and can't just daydreaming all day long

@Jo why is it important to know how much time you spent on every layer? (There is already time being counted for every document - you can see it in File -> Document Information). What is the use case for that that cannot be solved by File -> Document Information entry?

Hi Tymond, 
This system could help us to determine if the time spent on various layers was worth the effort, in an attempt to discipline ourselves and make better choices. 

Basically, looking at the time spent for each layer we get some idea about the variables time (quantity) versus rendering (quality). I see it's application in speed exercises/Generation of ideas

Finally, this management is just a kind of log, and it's goal isn't to condition us in any way. Quality needs time, and there aren't shortcuts except honing our skills. With the aid of Interesting tools
