Can you share your KRA file. I just tested it out and the inner shadow seems to be working fine for me. It is hard to tell what thing you have on that vector layer by the screenshot

Your latest attachment shows the Blending Options parameters which haven't been implemented yet. You need to click on the name "Inner Shadow" so that it is highlighted, as in my attached screenshot. Ticking the box applies the layer effect. Clicking the name selects the parameters for display and adjustment. I suspect that the 4.1.x default parameters for that layer effect are different from the current ones and that may be why you feel the effect is 'wrong'. Again, what do you expect to see? What did 4.1.x do that was acceptable to you? You need to try adjusting the Inner Shadow layer effect parameters.
Thanks for your comment! Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to get confirmed. In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information.
Created attachment 121058 [details] Example files for Inner Shadow Bug I realise what's happening now and I confirm this bug for 4.1.7 and 4.2.1 using Linux appmages and Windows portable .zip versions. It's also in the latest 4.3.0 pre-alpha appimage. The bug report author is concered about the red horizontal and vertical lines which are artefacts and are not associated with the original image. This happens with certain parameter setting of the Inner Shadow Layer Styles. It's made worse by large Distance, large Choke and small Size. The artefacts seem to be associated with image content bounding boxes and their placement is affected by the lighting Angle. They are often persistent when the image layer is turned off and then can be removed by turning the background layer off. There is often a transient artefact when the Layer Style parameters are altered. Changing layer positions can result in other persistent artefacts. Moving layer content often results in another moved copy of the associated artefact. The bug is not affected by clearing configuration files. Sample-InnerShadow-Bug.kra in the attached .zip file can be used to observe and investigate this bug.
After my refactoring of layer styles, the bug is not reproducible in master. But these patches were not backported to 4.2. I'm not sure what we should do with it.
Is it a lot of work to backport those patches?
I'm triaging right now. If I confirm that these patches caused the fix, then we should postpone releasing this fix till 4.3, because they change how layer styles are rendered significantly. I'm checking it right now.
Okay, I have checked. The bug was fixed when merging the layer styles update. I cannot backport the fix without backporting the entire merge, which will significantly change Krita rendering behavior. We cannot backport it into a "bugfix" release :( So, just wait till 4.3 is released or use Krita Nightly.
