Bug ID: 425659
Summary: [Request] More sliders/UX improvements to the Filter
interface
Product: krita
Version: 4.3.0
Platform: Other
OS: All
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Filters
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: tomtomtomreportin...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It's a bit jarring to the user's experience to set up a filter layer for Random
Noise and realize they'd have to hold on to the tiny arrow buttons or reach
across the keyboard to type in a value they would like, especially when other
filters (like HSL Adjustment and Gaussian Blur) and other parts of the
interface (like Size/Flow/Opacity on the toolbar) don't act like this.
I will note the following filters (separated by their categories) that could
use more sliders instead of pure text boxes:
Index Colors
Oil Paint
Pixelize
Posterize
Raindrops
Blur (this one also lacks a dial for configuring the angle)
Lens Blur (also lacks a dial)
Motion Blur (this one DOES have a dial though)
Gaussian High Pass
Emboss with Variable Depth
Gaussian Noise Reducer
Unsharp Mask
Wavelet Noise Reducer
Phong Bumpmap's Light Sources tab (has a dial for Azimuth but not one for
Inclination)
Round Corners
Small Tiles
Random Noise
Random Pick
Wave
I would hope these would not be too troublesome to implement. Perhaps there
could be an argument for sliders taking too much space in the UI, but most of
these filters have a lot of empty space. If one were to configure them using
the smaller window of Layer Properties, Gaussian Blur for example seems to have
handled a smaller slider well enough.
I guess there's also an argument for slightly breaking existing workflows. For
example, you can currently double left-click the Random Noise textboxes to type
in your preferred value, but if it had a slider like Gaussian Blur, you'd have
to right-click to manually type in your preferred value. However, I don't think
this would be an issue at all if it used a Slider + Textbox combo like HSV
Adjustment.
