Bug ID: 492732
Summary: Duplicating / Pasting Animated Layer doesn't move the
frame selection properly.
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: git master (please specify the git hash!)
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Animation
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: emmetoneill....@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When a single frame is selected on the AnimationTimeline frames view, normally
selecting or moving a layer in the LayerBox, the FRAME selection moves with the
LAYER selection to focus on the active/visible layer.
However, when duplicating or pasting a layer, the LAYER selection is changed to
focus on the NEW layer, but the FRAME selection is still pointing to a frame on
the OLD layer.
This is a minor issue, but has the effect of somewhat confusing behavior when
adding or removing frames in this scenario.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In a file with a layer, duplicate or copy/paste a second animated layer into
the document.
2. Hit the "add keyframe" button on the Animation Timeline Docker's toolbar.
OBSERVED RESULT
Notice that the frame that you've added has appeared on the previously selected
layer.
(The one that you copied from, not the one that you just pasted.)
EXPECTED RESULT
Having been confused about this myself, I think it'd probably be less confusing
to have the single fame selection move to the newly pasted layer, so that
hitting the "Add Frame" button adds a frame on the new one without requiring an
extra click. (Though this is probably up for debate.)
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora 40 Linux, gnome x11, git master as of writing this, built with dmitry's
docker.
