Description Dev 2023-01-05 07:23:36 UTC
SUMMARY
Krita's current text tool is counterproductive, as it requires too many steps to perform basic actions. Surprisingly, it used to be better in older versions of Krita, prior to the addition of the external text editor dialogue that opens as an entirely separate window. Text editors should be simple, and require only one click on the canvas to activate it, rather than having to drag an entire box. All text editing tools (size, style, color, etc.) should be accessible in the tool properties menu alone. Simplicity is key. Finally, FAVORITES should be implemented for fonts similar to brush preset favorites.
