How to install Krita 4.1.1 released on Ubuntu 18.04

   Krita is a professional FREE and open source painting program. It is made by artists that want to see affordable art tools for everyone.

•     concept art
•     texture and matte painters
•     illustrations and comics

    Krita 4.1 is the second feature release in the Krita 4 series and is released only three months after 4.0. But there is still a heap of interesting new things and improvements to check out!

Krita 4.1.1 Changelog:

• Added context menu (right click) options for transform tool. This makes it easier to change your transform type between perspective, free, warp, etc.
• Added context menu (right click) options for crop. This makes it easier to use without needing the tool options open.
• New Cursor option. Force brush outline to always be shown at 100%
• HEIF file format can now be opened and saved to. Thanks to a patch by Dirk Farin. Note that this is not enabled in the default builds because the libraries needed to build the import/export filter are very new.
• Ask the user what DPI they want their SVG images imported with
• Multibrush tool now accepts decimals for the angle
• Fixes to links for new documentation site
• Fix for animation docker so closing the docker doesn’t make the animation stuck on stop
• Improve text describing 8 bits/integer channel depth
• Update g’mic plugin to 2.3.0 (was at 2.2.0)
