Potential improvements to Inherit Alpha in Krita

Why have it there? All those buttons add/ manipulate rows (layers/ masks/ filters).
Any changes to the docker itself should be in the docker options imo. Because they change the way the docker is used.


Under tree indentation there can be:
A dropdown called “Clipping mask style” with the options for arrow or indentation
A default clipping mask style: inherit alpha or clipping mask
The latter would be mostly for imports. But could also make it’s way to the user preferences.

Any file that were to use clipping masks would be saved with the clipping mask setting saved, so legacy files will always be read as not having clipping masks. Krita knows what to do when it encounters a file with clipping masks > it is a new version and forward compatible.
