Re: Krita still sucks...

True that KRITA is not usable (workable) at 800x600 resolution. Hey guys try krandr and switch to 800x600 resolution and try working with krita! I'll bet that you won't find it a good experience.
Due to my monitor which can't have high refresh rate like 85 Hz at 1024x768, which is only available at 800x600 resolution and my monitor can have 60Hz at 1024x768 which causes much eye-strain and sore-eyes. I am stuck at 800x600 resolution.
You guys have to consider 800x600 resolution for all kde applications, because 800x600 *is the supported KDE resolution*. |

As I said, if you close the dockers, hide them push them down the bottom of the screen, roll them up or use the kivio-style dockers you'll have as much space available as possible for any application. You can disable the rulers, remove most of the toolbars -- that only leaves the window decorations and the tools toolbars.
But in the end, 800x600 is never going to be good enough to work with images, whether you use the Gimp, Kolourpaint or XPaint. Most _images_ are bigger than that.

I use the Kivio-style dockers myself and they make Krita quite usable on my 1024x768 screen. However, if I may request that their positions be remembered, instead of having to rearrange them from the top left corner each time... ;)

Working on that... The first beginning of that code is already in svn.

Useless, because Tool Dialogs always stay on top, and on your way, this is terrible, I don't want to deal with tool dialogs and roll them up every time for a litle more space, the UI its a mess and need to be more intuitive. to me Krita is still on alpha.

Unfortunately, he/she is correct. Another example of the kind of software that is a road paved with good intentions... and never hath hell so much fury. Grossly over complicates the simplest things.
Ex. an eraser is a concept I thought I was familiar with. Used 'em like crazy, no doubt (i.e. yes, I make plenty of mistakes--BUT I ERASE THEM!). But thanks to krita, it's like meeting the eraser all over again. Click on it, touch your picture, and presto!, the whole thing turns purple. Huh?
This is why Microsoft, bad as it is, still makes sense to 80% of the world's computing population. And they PAY for it.

Er...
I think you accidentally clicked, two or three years after the posting you replied to, on the "selection eraser" tool. Which erases bits of the current selection. If you want to erase bit of your painting, choose the eraser from the combobox in the topmost toolbar. (And yes, that's similar to the way a famous Windows application works.)

So you basically want to have your cake and eat it? Have all the necessary options (layers, tools, colors...) in view all the time, and all of your image, and no separate windows, and all that at 800x600? And the Gimp gives you this? I must admit I am slightly puzzled, because when I work with the Gimp I don't have enough pixels for everything and my image on my 1600x1200 screen... But no doubt you can suggest a solution.

Im complaining by the fact the Main Windows (you know, the one containing the image) is covered by the tool windows in that resolution, you cannot send to back and you cannot roll them up while they are floating, so it covers your work space and only 40% of the image is usefull, that's the problem, maybe you should try it and really try to work in such situations and you will se how unusuable Krita becomes.

Ah, in that case, if even the kiviostyle dockers don't satisfy you (and you _have_ tried that, haven't you, you aren't just complaining about something you haven't worked with?), then I'm sorry. I won't make a style of tool windows that can disappear behind the image window. So Krita will never be usable for you.
