Bug ID: 477715
Summary: [Selection tools] Tracing interupted by Krita while
using Recorder docker (and recording)
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: nightly build (please specify the git hash!)
Platform: Appimage
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Dockers/Recorder
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: i...@davidrevoy.com
Target Milestone: ---
Hi,
This bug is similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=474525 ( [Selection
tools] Tracing interupted by Krita when an Overview Docker refreshes,
RESOLVED/FIXED ), while tracing a selection the action to end the selection
happens in the middle, even if the user doesn't wants it. But this time, the
condition to interupt tracing selection on the canvas midway is the Recorder
Docker while recording.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On a large multilayered Krita document, activate the Recorder docker so it
records frames in background.
2. Select the Freehand Selection Tool.
3. Duplicate a layer with content on it
4. Immediately on the canvas, try to trace a large selection on the canvas
OBSERVED RESULT
Your selection will be interupted: an event in background on Krita during your
tracing will end your selection: the current position will be connected to the
origin of your selection as if you released your Mouse button or stylus.
You can also reproduce with painting or anything that update the canvas and
force the Recorder to export a new frame. You'll notice it especially if you
use a keyboard shortcut to switch to a selection tool; as you'll be quick
enough to start tracing selection before any "Projection of the Recorder"
update/refresh. I just found for my "How to reproduce" example easier to use
the duplicate layer while having already selected the Freehand Selection Tool
to showcase the bug.
EXPECTED RESULT
Finishing the tracing of my selection.
OBSERVATIONS
- Can't reproduce when recording is off.
- The bug was discovered by Aqao on K-A (thanks for the report) I'm relaying
here because I could reproduce. You'll find video screenshot on this K-A
thread:

Reproducible in 5.2~Nightly build:
5.2.1-81497a64cb-x86_64 (today end November)
