            Bug ID: 426865
           Summary: Moved local selection doesn't update in paint layer
           Product: krita
           Version: 4.3.0
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tools/Selection
          Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: nicolasgreli...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY

* issue: If I select an area in a paint layer and create a local selection,
moving the selection from within the selection mask (moving the white part),
does not update the displayed selection in the paint layer.

* action resolving the issue: if after moving the selection, I modify it by
painting on the selection mask, the issue disappears: the paint layer selection
updates as expected.

* action preventing the issue to appear: if I create a local selection mask
without having selected an area in the paint layer first, the issue doesn't
seem to arise.

* other issue arising from issue: If I create another local selection, based on
a selection that has been moved in the selection mask, but not updated in the
paint layer, then, the new selection mask seems to agree with the displayed
selection in the paint layer, rather than the actual area selected

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select an area in a paint layer
2. Create a local selection
3. Move the selected area (white part) within the selection mask
4. Go back to the paint layer

OBSERVED RESULT

The displayed selected area has not moved. When I try to paint, the paint is
limited to the moved selection, not the displayed one, leading to a weird
experience while painting 

EXPECTED RESULT

The displayed selection in the paint layer should move when the selection area
in the selection mask is moved 


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu, Krita 4.3.0 appimage
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

AhabGreybeard reproduced the issue, also with Krita 4.3.0 appimage.
He didn't have the issue with only one local selection mask, only with two ore
more, but I suspect it was because he didn't have any area selected in the
paint layer when he created the first selection mask, as I had not tried that
before.
He also says that "This has not been fixed in the Sept 20th Stable/Plus
version", so he suggested I report the bug here
Happy to send screenshots if needed
