SUMMARY Using color picker tool with CTRL ignores color picker tool settings. Particularly notable with "Sample from current/all visible layer" setting. This may not be techically a bug, but it's counter-intuitive and breaks the pourpose of the CTRL shortcut workflow for users that need to sample only the selected layer. I suggest it to follow the tool setting (best solution) or to at least have a configurable options on Krita settings. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a new file with two layers, bucket-fill them two different colors and make the top-most layer 50% transparent. 2. Select the top-most layer, change the color-picker tool to "Sample Current Layer" 3. Change back to the Brush tool, press CTRL and sample from the top-layer. OBSERVED RESULT Color picker ignores setting and takes the mix of both layers color. EXPECTED RESULT Color picker respects setting and takes only selected layer color.

I realized later that there is a separate combo key of CTRL+ALT to sample from current layer only.
