Bug ID: 499504
Summary: Selection mask unselected zone color should not adhere
to colorspace
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: 5.2.2
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Tools/Selection
Assignee: krita-bugs-n...@kde.org

A screenshot displaying the issue.
SUMMARY
Unselected zones in selection masks adhere to the grayscale colorspace,
appearing grey instead of the usual red when it is selected for the current
document.
This color adhering to the colorspace is pointless as it is never shown in the
final document, and detrimental as it makes unselected space less visible when
working with selection masks in grayscale documents (gray on gray).
Additionally, the colorspace is silently selected by Krita when opening a
grayscale document, meaning users not aware of this issue will think the
selection mask is not working or that they are painting on the actual pixel
layer (like I did).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an document with the grayscale colorspace, or set a document's
colorspace to grayscale.
2. Create and select any selection mask.
3. Observe the unselected zones highlighted by the mask. Paint or erase on the
mask to see it better.
OBSERVED RESULT
The unselected zones appear gray (and are difficult to see).
EXPECTED RESULT
The unselected zones should appear red, or some other clearly visible color.

this seems niche enough that I wouldn't expect it to have been found.
