Hello, dear ... two question's

Where are the KRITA Folders from Krita in UBUNTU 13.10?!
If I did open /usr/bin I' see no any Krita-Folder(s)

If I open /home and KDE I see only brush presets, thats fine, but I need the place of the KRITA File for making a shortcut - because I can start KRITA-2.8.x only per Terminal.
So I need your help, because I couldn't find it.

And my second question ...
I work also with other programms, like ARTRAGE, PHOTOSHOP ... which layers are compatible with Adobe? Krita did have a very huge collection of different layer settings, so I need to know the PS-compatible layers

But I'm very glad about Krita, maybe once a day I need also only Krita, Gimp and so on

How did you install Krita on your computer? Was it through the appropriate package manager (Ubuntu Software Center for instance) or did you install it through another method?

If you installed it through the package manager, it should have created a menu entry. You can use the menu editor to assign a shortcut to it in this case - assuming you use the KDE Plasma Workspace (which is not the case if you have installed Ubuntu - that uses Unity)

I installed it per LXTERMINAL, I use LUBUNTU, because I like it simply/classic

I could found it per LOCATE

THNX,

but what are the best export/import files between krita and photoshop?

PSD & TIF doesn't work good, I use Krita 2.7.2, the present alpha was for me too buggy ...

Lxterminal, if I am not wrong is simply a terminal emulator - how did you use it to install Krita? Through downloading and compiling sources, or apt-get?
In terms of a menu entry, LXDE should support the XDG standard menu, so Krita should be present - if it was installed properly...

yes, with sudo apt-get - and the Alpha with ppa backport and so on

I will try it again with TIF - for export, PSD out from Krita I can't open in Photoshop - I get EOF-Errors ...

Okay, i'm guessing there is a issue with Xfce then - the Krita menu item should be detected. Only thing you could try is looking under /usr/share/applications for the Krita desktop file - and examine it's contents by posting them here. As long as it doesn't contain anything such as OnlyShowIn=KDE then it should work for Xfce though.

I can't answer for TIFF or PSD output i'm afraid.

TIFF is a plain image format, i.e. it does not support layers, text, or anything similar. It will just store the visible pixel data.
If that is enough for you, then I would try to open the image created by krita with another program, e.g. gwenview, or imagemagick ("display foo.tiff") to determine whether the file is broken or photoshop can't open it.
You could also try exporting to PNG which is a bit simpler than TIFF and also lossless (unless you have large color depths, not sure if PNG supports that).

If you need layers, I guess what krita exports as PSD is sort of your only choice. Effectively you'll just need to try what really works and what doesn't. Or if you wait a bit longer maybe you can get someone to post a listing of what is supposed to be working

Greetings,
Sven

I would be very interested in the original .kra files that generate PSD files that photoshop cannot open. Basically, we only support pixel layers (no groups, no vector, no effect layers), but those should work just fine. If not, it's a bug and we need to fix it .

For interchange with other free graphics apps, like GIMP and MyPaint, there's the OpenRaster file format, but Adobe naturally has no interest in supporting that.
