Happens to me often, I draw in symmetry. adjust etc and then realize half the drawing was adjusted/cleared/moved Wouldn't mirroring selection be an option? Otherwise one would need to make a quick clear of half the canvas, duplicate and flip the other side and merge again.
Then I wonder how this would work with the multibrush that can go up to 50 replicas :p
What do you mean by mirrored selection? Is it a duplicate of bug 392616? If so, please also note that there is a plugin that can symmetrize your artwork faster than doing that manually: https://krita-artists.org/t/mirror-fix-correct-symmetry-errors/5805
It seems to be a duplicate yes. Seeing things in real time on both sides of the canvas would be really cool. I believe the plugin pastes half the canvas over the other half on demand which saves you some labor, but yet live change would be the best.
also the problem with the plugin is if I did some distinction on one side by disabling simetry (like a scar on a face) and then use the plugin, it will erase the customization I made on one side. Usually I make a selection and clear the layer there, I would expect the other side to be cleared as well without having to paste half the layer on the other side.
For complex mirror worflows I suggest you use clone layers and transform masks. You get more control and can make wathever you need. Multibrush only "mirrors" the stroke but has no effect on other tools. as well as the mirror tool. However the mirror tool could be added the functionality to mirror selecion along the tool axis.
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.
I didn't use clone layers since a few years. At the time krita would slow down and crash quickly. I'll give it a try again. Maybe it's been updated since tht time ?
Then I'll mark it as a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 392616 ***
