Create new layer under the current layer

[karemuvar]

Hi

@Grum999 gave this script for creating a layer below the current layer but it seems to fail regularly when run on a layer inside a group (like when the current layer is the bottom group layer). Does anyone have a script that can create a layer that is below the current layer?

Continuing the discussion from Is it possible to create new layer under the current layer instead of on top of current layer?:

@Grum999

from krita import *

def getNextSibling(node):
    previousNode=None
    for foundNode in node.parentNode().childNodes():
        if foundNode==node:
            return previousNode
        previousNode=foundNode
    return previousNode

doc=Krita.instance().activeDocument()
if doc:
    currentNode=doc.activeNode()
    if currentNode:
        newNode=doc.createNode("New paint layer", "paintlayer")
        currentNode.parentNode().addChildNode(newNode, getNextSibling(currentNode))
