--- Comment #26 from Raghavendra kamath <ra...@raghukamath.com> ---
Hi Kate,

Thank you very much for the images, that makes it clear to understand what you
want.

>From what I understand you want the filter to only applied to the selected
layer and merged down, disregarding the unselected layer, that is the filter
should not be applied to the unselected layer and it should be reverted to how
it looked without filter. 

Now as we have told you in previous comment that in krita the filter layers are
just like new "layers from visible + the filter applied to them" so we try to
keep the output as close to what users see prior to merging.

In your scenarios the merged output changes from what you have prior to
merging, it might be easy to guess in simple situations like having two three
layer and some adjustment layers, but It gets tricky when you'll have filters
such as blur or when you'll have more than 10 or 20 layers in between with
different blend modes.  

May I request you to also show us images what photoshop does when you have blur
as filter layer, as you had in your first attachment.

The design of the filter layer in Krita is different from photoshop's
adjustment layers. And krita users are more accustomed to the behaviour that we
have now. Changing it will lead to discomfort to many of the krita users who
rely on the existing behaviour.

Still if you feel like we need to change the behaviour I humbly suggest you to
start a discussion topic in forum, so that we can gather more support and
opinion from the artists and we will get know what they like. 

P.S. The bug title can be - [Wish bug] Make filter layer affect only the
selected layer when merging down.
