Okay, = so the Multi view control branch for Krita has finally entered testing stag= e, so I build it and started poking at it:

Some notes for thos= e who want to try it out themselves:

* had to empty build for this.<= br>* had to empty trash afterwards.

otherwise it just creates = build errors.

Now for the notes:

* settings became conf= used in this build.
** ctrl+z doesn't work.
** confirm(by pressin= g enter), in transform and crop doesn't work
** Nor does the pop-up= palette, rotate mode, or zoom.
** Top-bar misses actions.
*** Undo f= reehand brush-stroke is only availeble in file<calligra>, not in brus= hes and stuff<krita>
*** The same for zooming, and brush smootheni= ng(!)
** Activate linetool is greyed out in preferences.
* many actio= ns are missing from the view-menu(expected?)(grid-actions are missing)
*= Actions misordered in File as well...

Not sure what happened there, it used to work.

=C2=A0

* Slowdowns on focussing windows/canvases= .(gnome thinks it froze and is asking me whether I would like to kill Krita= )
** closing preferences and going to canvas will cause slowdown.
** = going between multiple documents will cause slowdown.

KisImageView::setParentView call=C2=A0resetDisplayProf= ile which is quite slow. It should be checked if that even needed there.
=C2=A0
** Going to an ou= tside program and coming back in will also cause slowdown.
* Assistants = are broken and cause crash.

Assis= tants are still missing from mvc.
=C2=A0
=
* General slowdown on selection and geometric tools. (It t= ags notably between confirm and actual drawing, feels similar to the layer-= gui-update-lag that slangkamp had to fix kisview for, maybe it's trying= too hard to figure out on which canvas it's trying to paint?)(only hap= pens in tabbed mode).

Doesn't= happen here.
=C2=A0
* New= view works great!
** Undo is shared between views wel!
** Color is r= andomly not remembered between switching focus-canvas.(returns to black...)=

Can't reproduce that.
<= div>=C2=A0

* Tiled view works okay.<= br>** However, it gets a little strange when trying to resize the canvas wi= ndows. (asif it's trying to snap constantly)
** Painting between can= vases works great, adjusting the navigation between canvases doesn't(la= g)
** Overview docker works great between canvasses, (but again, super-l= ag on switching focus canvas)

The= re is a small delay due to the update time, but appart from that it's n= ot unusally slow here. Might be fixed with the latest master merge.

=C2=A0

* Closing a view is super-= slow.
* When using subwindows, when Krita is closed down, and then resta= rted, and multiple documents are opened, Krita does not recognise that they= should be subwindowed. Nor does it draw tabs. If you select Tiled-view in = the windows submenu, it subwindows them correctly.

That only works if changed in the settings. I think tiled= view should not be available in the menu if the application is in tabbed m= ode.

=C2=A0

* Odd bug: Sel= ect a tool(example circle) in one view, paint with it on another. Then go t= o the other view, paint again, undo. Go back to first view, paint, notice t= hat it only uses the freehand brush. No switching of tools will actually ha= ppen in the first view, only in the second. (sometimes it works the other w= ay around, it seems, the common thread is that if a tool has been changed i= n one cnavas, the other canvas doesn't understand this, and it results = in the other canvas not being able to change tools anymore)
** As well, = the tool options with this bug will be garbled, as if the tool-options wher= e not switched out, but just painted on top of each other.

Which options? Can happen when the ui file isn= 9;t merge correctly.
=C2=A0
* Wrap-around mode works well!
* Perspective grid tool works... but it= 's sublines are not drawn.

Fi= xed.
=C2=A0
* undoing a se= lection caused a crash...(not reproducable)
* crash on attempting to sho= w grid!(reproducable, probly missing action)
Grid actions are not set up as the manager expects to have an i= mageview. Manager and decoration need to be split. We also can't store = the setting into a KisConfig as that breaks when you want to have different= image with different grids.
=C2=A0
* crash when using the right-mouseclick(for me assigned to color-= picker) while in a terminal that hovers above a Krita window.

Fixed, I think.
=C2=A0
* Terminal complains about color slider docker be= ing assigned a new layout constantly(proly my fault)
=

Also in master.
=C2=A0
=
* Terminal complains about this: krita(2941) KWidgetItemDe= legateEventListener::eventFilter: User of KWidgetItemDelegate should not de= lete widgets created by createItemWidgets! (repeated like, 20 times each ti= me you start up Krita)
* Terminal complains about paintop presets: krita= (3626) KisPaintopBox::setCurrentPaintop: current paintop=C2=A0 "Basic_= tip_default"=C2=A0 was not set, not supported by colorspace
<= div>

tl;dr: The problems can be subdivided into sev= eral catagories:
1) Hotkeys, settings and missing actions.
2) Confusion between canvasses.
3) Slowdown.
4) Miscelaneous.

=
I will sent the crash-reports in seperate mails after.
