SUMMARY This bug only happens with the krita-4.2.0-beta-fb226d0-x86_64.appimage. I think the 4.2.0 beta Windows version is not ready yet? Vectors in a newly created layer will be displayed and saved but will not be displayed when the .kra file is opened again after saving. Any additional lines drawn will replace the original line but not be displayed after Save and re-Open. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Make a new file and add a vector layer then draw a line in that layer. 2. Save As line.kra then Close the image. 3. Examine the contents of line.kra and note that all seems to be correct. 4. Open line.kra - the vector line is not shown. 5. Draw a second line and Save then Close the image. 6. Examine line.kra and note that it now contains only the second line. 7. Open line.kra - nothing is shown - etc. etc. OBSERVED RESULT As described above. EXPECTED RESULT The vector lines should be shown and should remain after new lines are drawn SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Krita Version: 4.2.0-beta (git fb226d0) Languages: en_GB, en Hidpi: true Qt Version (compiled): 5.12.2 Version (loaded): 5.12.2 OS Information Build ABI: x86_64-little_endian-lp64 Build CPU: x86_64 CPU: x86_64 Kernel Type: linux Kernel Version: 4.9.0-9-amd64 Pretty Productname: Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) Product Type: debian Product Version: 9 Hardware Information GPU Acceleration: auto Memory: 16049 Mb Number of Cores: 8 Swap Location: /tmp ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The situation is more complicated in that the presence of a second vector layer seems to 'protect' the lines in another vector layer but you can't draw/save lines in one of the layers. Also, if you open the file with a recent 4.2.0-alpha appimage and add a line, then save it, that additional line will be displayed in the 4.2.0-alpha but not in the 4.2.0-beta. It's difficult to describe in words and gets more complicated the more you try different actions.
All beta builds for all platforms were released yesterday.
Ah, you're not talking about the beta itself, but the latest nightly build. That contained a fix for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407537 that broke other files. I've reverted the fix and am trying to figure out a different solution.
It does identify itself as a 'beta' as does the very recent Windows nightly build, hence the 'confusion'. The latest Windows nightly build is listed as an 'alpha' but self-identifies as a 'beta' when it runs.
yes, the way the binary factory automatically determines the filenames is different for windows and and for linux.
Git commit 4cb990274f8664d4eb3311af7755c8ff6065150c by Boudewijn Rempt. Committed on 17/05/2019 at 09:40. Pushed by rempt into branch 'master'. Add a legacy zip store for writing backwards-compatible kra files Use the Quazip store for reading and writing 64 bits zip files, the Legacy store for writing 32 bits zip files. It's still not ideal, having two zip implementations (and a third one hidden inside Qt), but this gives maximal compatibility. Vectors and colorize masks load again as well.
