Bug ID: 490652
Summary: No default layer selected when opening files
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.2.3-beta1
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General

Screen capture of layer menu with no layer selected by default.
In previous versions of Krita, opening one or a plurality of graphics files
(PNG, TIFF, JPEG, etc.) always resulted in the single layer labelled
"background" being selected for all files. This layer is available for editing
as soon as the file is loaded.
In version 5.2.3, opening a plurality of files from the GUI or the command line
results in all of them but the last one to have NO DEFAULT LAYER selected. One
has to go in the layer control, select "background", which is the only layer
available, and then one can begin to edit. Quite often, not even the last file
opened has a layer selected.
>From the GUI, if only one file is opened from the menu, it appears to have a
layer selected, but I have not tested this exhaustively.
On the command line, often not even the last file opened result in having a
selected layer, and sometimes opening a single file does not have a layer
selected either.
>From the random, inconsistent behavior, I'm quite sure that this is a bug, and
not anything intentional. Having to click to select the layer menu and select
"background" is especially inconvenient when editing a large number of files.
