Bundle Editor (New Feature)

In that case, could the overview already be part of the Select Resources step? Because if you have to go to the end and then realise you missed some, you’ll be going back and forth. I do think it’s good to have the selected resources as summary for a final check though, that’s not the point.

I think it already shows you the selected resources in the right block. It only doesn’t show everything. May be we can show all the selected resources in sections. when choosing rather than show what is selected in each section when the user selects the dropdown.

That’s indeed what I meant.

Voting on this one.
It would be good to have python APIs for whatever will be implemented.

I wonder if this Plugin Edit feature will allow adding resources.

For instance adding the brush or a texture or a gradient to the existing bandle.

At least it was talked about adding this! Unfortunately, very late in the other topic, so I hope @Srirupa_Datta has enough time to implement this. But for me, it would be more important to add more resource types that can be added to a bundle, than to add and remove resources from/to existing bundles.

If I want to add or remove resources, then I unpack the bundle in question into a Krita installation I have reserved and prepared only for this, via another user-account on Windows. But this can be done with help of a second resource-folder too. Just tell Krita to use the other resource-folder.

I disagree. Having the bundles that can be only created and not edited it is the same things as if you have a Word Processing that can only create document. And if you want changes you need to create NEW one with this changes.

Having the ability to change things let a lot of people provide updates and create large bundles that cover a lot of changes. And most of all fix small issues easily.

so do we have a feature that allows users to edit existing bundle instead of creating a new one in 2025? I don’t find the feature in the software.

Thank you! My current version is 5.2.9, so I cannot find it.

Every day, you can get the new created nightly from the following link, just select your OS and then download the executable or installation packet for your OS.
If you use Windows, I would go for the portable version, because you can use it side by side with your regular installation, and they will share the same settings, but you can’t use them simultaneously.

I was wondering if there any updates on the progress.

Also I am curious if there are any estimates on when we can expect this feature to be included in official release.

35

I think this is merged in the master - Improve Bundle Creator in Krita (!1802) · Merge requests · Graphics / Krita · GitLab

So it might be in the nightlies So next 5.3 release should have this
