Added the correct software, Krita, and version of Krita to the report. Forum link on Krita-Artists.org: https://krita-artists.org/t/sometimes-krita-refuses-to-load-my-large-kra-files/110883 I, myself, can not confirm having this issue, although I use and used layer styles a lot, and for a long time over many versions of Krita, regular releases as well as nightlies. I used both types, original Krita layer styles in ASL format and also Adobe ASL's extensively in the past and can not remember issues. Regards Michael Strothotte
