Bug ID: 517221
Summary: Having patterns in their own folder and then using a
pattern on a fill layer makes krita unable to save.
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version First 5.2.6
Reported In:
Platform: Other
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Resource Management

The dialogue box that opens when attempting to save.
SUMMARY
If you use a Fill layer with a pattern then the pattern file is stored in the
saved .kra file as an embedded resource. However, it seems that having the
pattern files inside their own folder, within the -\krita\patterns folder makes
them inaccessible to the file saving process.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install patterns in their own sub-folder in the \krita\patterns folder
2. Create a fill layer and then adjust the properties of the layer and choose
one of the new patterns
3. Attempt to save as a .kra file.
OBSERVED RESULT
A dialogue box pops up stating there was a problem with saving, and Krita
"could not export resource for embedding."
EXPECTED RESULT
The save function would work as intended and save as a .kra file.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 11
macOS:
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma:
KDE Plasma Version:
KDE Frameworks Version:
Qt Version:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Easily fixed by closing krita, moving the new pattern files into the main
pattern folder, and deleting the now empty pattern sub-folder.
