Quick wand tool and managing areas

Thanks for replies!

Unfortunately, as far as I know, this is not possible in Krita, this might be inconvenient if you switch to Krita from another software, but you will have to get used to it, at least if you want to enjoy the benefits of Krita hehe

Actually this got me thinking and after getting a quick glance at code, I saw that this function is already implemented! It’s not in the stable release though Add more tool invocation actions (!693) · Merge requests · Graphics / Krita · GitLab It’s working great! But it seems that concept of invocation could use some reworking? I think I’m not competent enough to delve into that though.
Thankfully while waiting for it getting into stable release I can use this nice plugin Temporary tool switching
(btw. not counting good ol’ MS Paint, Krita is my first painting software, so my way around it can be sometimes ridiculous)

Have you tried using the Colorize Mask instead? That would probably cut your time down spent on the coloring a lot.

@AhabGreybeard

For each Set-layer, you can then lock its alpha and put paint on it in any way you like.

These are great ideas and tools! I kinda work like that. Use Colorize Mask to split image into different areas with abstract colors, by this you have all sets in one layer. Then I use this layer as mask for color/contiguous selection so I can quickly color, paint, shade etc. in any combination of sets I want.
Idk. If I’m not overengineering it though

So thanks for ideas! I think that the problem is resolved by this.
