            Bug ID: 420338
           Summary: [selection] Krita can't paint (empty selection,
                    feedback issue)
           Product: krita
           Version: 4.2.9
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tools/Selection
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: i...@davidrevoy.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Hey, 

After visiting forums, blaming Windows driver of its XP-Pen tablet, checking
the property of all layers, a user sent me this morning a Krita document that
he couldn't paint on it anymore. Not possible to paint on any layers. The
solution was simple but not obvious. And this bug could be a good prank to a
co-worker using Krita 4.2.9. :D

To reproduce: 
=============
- Open a new multilayered document.
- Ctrl+A: Select all (notice the marching ant all around the canvas)
- Ctrl+Shift+i: Invert selection... (Tadaaaa! Marching ants disapear totally)
- Save now the document as *.kra, close it, reopen it, share it.

Result:
=======
It produce a invisble empty selection. So no feedback about the presence of
selection: the canvas appears totally normal, no marching ant. Exept you can't
paint on this document anymore nor apply filters. And this affect all layers.
Workaround: Menu → Select → Deselect all  (nothing visually happens, but it
unlock all). The user who sent this to me thought his artwork was just frozen
this way.

Expected:
=========
If possible, a marching ant path around the canvas, even after inverting the
selection.
