Is anyone else seeing an issue with the selection tools in Beta? I think they are working because i can copy and paste, but i don’t see the selection boundary.
Also, i used to be able to right click and copy an image in the browser, and ctrl-shift-r (paste as reference image) - but it doesn’t seem to be pasting anymore. ctrl-shift-n works though (paste as new image)
I’m on windows 10
Both works for me on Linux (Manjaro with KDE)
Try seeing if Select->Display Selection is checked? (Ctrl+H by default)
I liked the update. The check feature on layers is so cool, now working on my drawings will be a bit easier. Haven’t seen a single crash yet.
Only feedback so far is that the touch docker just shows white for some reason.
I noticed the same thing about the touch docker in Android. The entire docker is white and there’s nothing clickable anywhere on it.
The group drop down of the brush preset docker now has big empty squares next to their names. I thought maybe they’re check boxes but I don’t seem to be able to do anything with them.
Also, not visible in the screenshot but that tool tip is flickering lick crazy sometimes, depending on where the mouse cursor is.
I use a 4k screen, krita is running with scaling.
it does appear to be checked, i’ve checked/unchecked it and checked it again - still can’t see the boundary
That’s weird. Another edge case bug probably. The selection changed in the new version, and I love this new, thicker look:
I’m on Windows 11.
Which rendering API are you using? You could try switching to native OpenGL in Configure > Display > Preferred renderer.
Another option I found that seems to relate to selections is Display > Miscellaneous > Enable selection outline anti-aliasing, but it doesn’t seem to do anything for me.
Success!
The outline doesn’t show up using OpenGL (which is what i have)
Switch to ANGLE fixed it. And switching back to OpenGL definitely reproduces it.
update: also fixed the ability to copy a selection out of 1 image and ctrl-r (paste as reference) to another image.
Ha, so my intuition worked! 
Would you mind sharing your GPU and driver version? I’m not familiar with how Krita renders these selection outlines, but worth ruling out the driver issues.
It was made dependent on display scaling, with the intent of being more visible on HiDPI screens; see bug 456364 – Marching ants for selection is not visible on 4k 27 inch screen .
I can confirm selection outlines being invisible using an Intel GPU with OpenGL (on Windows at least), and this doesn’t happen in 5.1.5, or using my Nvidia GPU. However, as the warning box in the Canvas Acceleration page states, Intel+OpenGL isn’t guaranteed to work properly. You’re likely better off using ANGLE.
I’m on a MobileStudio 16 - has onboard intel iris 550 (driver 31.0.101.2112) and nvidia quadro m1000m (31.0.15.2895). Even though it’s plugged in, windows decided it wanted to use the intel card 
I forced it to use NVIDIA via graphics settings and now both OpenGL and ANGLE work
Thanks @YRH @freyalupen !
Is there a sticky post with bug reporting instructions? Might be a good idea. It took me a bit to figure it out despite it being quite easy.
As almost always, the manual is your friend, 
you can call it directly out of Krita using the shortcut F1, or you follow the following links →
And so, this would be a good starting point:
As well as this:

@Pui_Xi_3000 The link had a spelling error. I’ve corrected it and it should work now.
on Android, the 1st time I opened it, it lasted for a minute before crashing; after that, it crashes almost instantly when opened.
on PC, I tried setting up a shortcut for Select layer below cursor with Ctrl + Alt + Left mouse button: It works when I use a mouse but doesn’t when I tried to click with my pen (Huion Kamvas 22 plus)
3 posts were split to a new topic: Will the 5.2.0 betas be available as Steam betas
I only opened the Beta and looked at the settings still.
Why is there no Dockers until you open a document ? I am perplexed with this, like:
So I REALLY ask is there a way to undo this no dockers present on boot ? I can’t find any option in the settings. Because the only thing I find is to reactivate the docker manually though the menu every time I boot up which is impossible to maintain while coding.
Because of the Python change I am trying to update and I can’t see anything to fix it.
Also layout wise why is not format it in 2 columns below to erase this odd diagonal near the void ? also the text inside the block is an impediment to acctually format the block of images inside the widget.
The start page layout was changed in the nightlies.
Regarding the issue of Dockers on startup I think this can be a regression due to oversight.
Please report these issues on bugs.kde.org
Fortunately beta is made to gather feedback like these so that the issues can be ironed out.
