SUMMARY Incorrectly interpreted strength curve in "Detailer soft" brush from David Revoy's brushpack v3 (https://www.davidrevoy.com/article180/ressource-krita-brushes, direct download link - https://www.davidrevoy.com/data/documents/2013-08-14_deevadkrita-V3.zip) The issue appears starting from Krita 4.2.7.1. Happens with 4.2.8 as well. The issue doesn't happen on Krita 4.2.6 and below. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Download Brush Pack from this link - https://www.davidrevoy.com/data/documents/2013-08-14_deevadkrita-V3.zip 2. Unpack and copy "Detailer_soft.kpp" to ~/.local/share/krita/paintoppresets (on Linux) 3. Launch Krita 4.2.8 4. Select "Detailer soft" brush 5. Open brush editor and select "Strength" parameter to view its curve OBSERVED RESULT Here's how Strength curve looks in 4.2.8 - https://morevnaproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/screenshot_krita-4.2.8.png You can also try to paint using mouse and it paints nothing (because of right point is set to zero on curve). EXPECTED RESULT ...and here is how Strength curve looks in 4.2.6 - https://morevnaproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/screenshot_krita-4.2.6.png SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Linux Mint 19 (available in About System) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Tested on Appimage versions.
I can confirm this but it's not just for the brush preset mentioned. It happens throughout the range of pixel engine brushes in 4.2.8 to the latest 4.3.0 prealpha appimage. Open the brush editor and expand the preset management section to the left. Scroll to the b) Basic brushes and select any of them and highlight Strength in the list of parameters. They all have a double hump transfer curve but they all paint with the mouse or with the stylus at maximum pressure. Select any of the presets and untick the 'Share curve across settings' box for Strength. It changes to a straight line curve. Then retick the box and it stays a straight line. All the presets now have a straight line Strength curve. If I then select a preset I already have which has a Pattern enabled, the Strength curve is double hump and other presets go back to having double hump for Strength, but not all of them. If you restart krita, the situation goes back to all having a double hump Strength curve.
The one commit that I can suspect is commit a2a86bd9a7c0c595fa6f7e6a7bcfb44144c00e4c Author: Agata Cacko <tamtamy.tymona@gmail.com> Date: Thu Aug 22 11:12:14 2019 +0200 Fix curve changing with sensors w/ Use Same Curve Before this commit, curve would change semi-randomly in some cases if you change from some specific sensors to some other specific sensors (having a complex curve and clicking randomly should show a bug though) when "Share curve across all settings" is selected. This commit fixes that behaviour. BUG:383909 CCBUG:410158
reverting that commit indeed fixes everything...

Fix incorrect common curve in very old presets Before this commit, some very old presets would get an incorrect curve with a weird two hills characteristics, which is a specific curve chosen to point out the inconsistencies in curves options code. This commit fixes that by checking if the curve has been set and if not, setting a clean empty curve instead.
