Choosing Krita's most annoying bugs and most sought after features

[silvio grosso]

Hi Pentalis,

In my view it would be very good to have the text tool *really* working.

This tool is a very basic feature for a software.
Therefore, in my view, it gives a bad impression when you are not able to use it properly :-)

I have tested many past Krita releases (with Ubuntu and Windows 7) and I have always found this tool either not working or even making Krita crash.

I have just read that even the brand-new release of Krita 2.5 on Windows has some problems relatated to it (http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=139&t=107382).
More precisely, It looks like this new bug has been fixed in the 2.5.1 release :-)

Regarding the other features, I DO think Krita is already a very powerful application.
In these past years, Krita has improved *greatly* :-)

I have a proposal:--Let's ask our users for their most hated bugs, or most wanted features, in Krita.
--If they are grouped in something large, which could be turned into a project instead of a set of bug fixes, then let's give shape to that project.
--Let's propose it.--People vote on it.--I will do it.
Let me elaborate a bit further. I want to find an efficient way to prioritize what to work on, for an extended period of time.

Slangkamp has his own vision for bug priority:<slangkamp> Pentalis: priority should be data loss->crash->regressions ->often report things->normal bugs->minor bugs<slangkamp> at least that's how I see it


My own POV answer:<Pentalis> well, it depends, we all hate crashes, but a crash that happens once a week is less annoying than a feature that doesn't work properly and you use it every 5 minutes


I want to resurrect my blog on Krita, update it weekly, and make buzz about new exciting features or new equally exciting bugfixes. What makes a bugfix exciting?, when it kills bugs you really hate; same with features, they're exciting when you really wanted them.


So I need YOU, dear Krita user, to help us find these most sought after features and most hated bugs. Give us your own list of horrors and dreamed features, explain those you think merit explaining (specially new features), and give us your insight on what more efficient way we can use to determine which improvements rank as the most needed for our application.


I'll be giving a face-lift to my blog on the meanwhile.
