Description bugs.kde.org.hyhop 2025-08-04 15:24:23 UTC 
EXPECTED RESULT
Ability to directly activate specific transform modes via keyboard shortcuts instead of having to:
1. Press Ctrl+T to activate transform
2. Go to the options docker to select the desired transform mode

Proposed shortcuts for:
- Perspective transform
- Warp transform  
- Cage transform
- Liquify transform
- Mesh transform

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This would significantly speed up digital painting and photobashing workflows where users frequently insert images and need to transform them. Currently, having to access the options docker each time interrupts the creative flow.

As a side note the community confirmed that this feature would be best implemented in the Krita source code.
