Hi, If you try to make a gradient over a black background, you'll can't see your origin and destination: the segment on canvas during the drag&drop action is black (and not "XOR" colored). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open a new document, fill it with black color. 2. Play with the gradient tool OBSERVED RESULT Impossible to control origin and destination of the gradient visually because it will be black over black. EXPECTED RESULT Get the segment colored with a XOR-like blending mode. (like when tracing circle, square, etc), it's bright over dark backgrounds and dark over bright backgrounds. Thank you :) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 20.04LTS Krita Plus 5.0.0-beta2 (git 188e619)
I can confirm this for the Nov 07 5.1.0-prealpha (git c0914fe) appimage on Debian 10. The Line tool, various other tool preview lines, the Guide lines and Assistant Preview lines do not have this problem. The Assistants themselves do have this problem on a grey background.
I just noticed this is fixed since quite a while: https://invent.kde.org/graphics/krita/-/merge_requests/1637
Thank you Lynx3d for checking this one and updating the status 👍.
