Quick Export Layers Docker Plugin

Resources Plugins and Scripts

This is a quick and simple export docker for quality of life that I created in order to make exporting faster and more versatile.

I’ve personally been using it for myself for a few years and it’s been a great addition to my toolkit so I thought I might share it and hopefully be useful to another soul out there.

  2. Open Krita, go to Settings → Configure Krita… → Python Plugin Manager and check the Quick Export Layers Docker
  3. Restart Krita, then go to Settings → Docker → Quick Export Layers Docker to turn the docker on

Very nice plugin, I made a fork where I changed the UI and added features inspired by Adobe Illustrator’s “Export for Screens” feature.

  • “Export layers separately” options are hidden unless checked
  • You can export a resized version of your file
  • You can click the folder icon to open your file explorer at that location
  • You can export in multiple file formats and toggle transparency for PNGs
  • Exporting PNGs with “Skip export dialog” will export the PNG at max lossless compression
  • You can rename your exported files
