now when i try to open a krita file it seems to open 2-3 instances and you cannot close out the krita welcome screen. you have to right click to close on the top panel krita notification. the pic does not open - krita is open but you have to use the menu in krita to find the said file to open. years ago it would automayically open it. what is wrong now? using bodhi 5 and krita 4.0.1

thanks.

does it happen with other files?
does it happen if there's already a document open?
I'd try with the recent stable version of Krita: https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Krit ... age_Build/
(4.0.1 is a bit outdated, the issue might have been fixed later...)

this is the version that is in synaptics. and i do not know command line to intsall any other way. it used to work fine before this version. - tthank you.

Try the appimage instead. See https://www.davidrevoy.com/article322/k ... e-for-cats for instrucctions.
