See it on a deck

The profile as it installs: 10 folders on the home page, 126 shortcuts inside them. Press a folder to open it, a key to see what it fires.

This profile's own key art, drawn by the same code that builds the files you install — and a starting point, not a fixed layout. Once it is imported, every key, folder and page is yours to move, rename, re-icon or delete in the Elgato Stream Deck app. What this page cannot be is the rest of the box: one theme of the ones it ships, two Stream Deck models of six, one platform's key combinations, and no dials.

Version history

Every published revision of this profile, newest first — what changed and why, in the maker's own words.

V1 Aug 21, 2026 Latest version

First release. 126 bindings across eleven folders: File, Edit, View, Select, Layers, Painting, Blending, Filters, Panels, Workflows and Help. This one was not transcribed. Krita is open source and declares its default shortcuts in two XML action files — krita/krita.action for the canvas, brushes, blending modes and layers, and krita/kritamenu.action for the File, Edit, View and Select menus. Both were read directly. The second file is the one that matters. krita.action alone carries 79 bindings and no File or Edit menu at all — a profile built on it would have shipped without Save, Undo or Copy. Together the two files give 126 defaults, of which 122 ship here. Left out: Quit, excluded as destructive; the tablet debugger, which is a developer tool; and two fill commands that the source lists twice, once under Edit and once under Painting.

Krita profile FAQ

How many shortcuts does the Krita Stream Deck profile include?

126 shortcuts, grouped into 11 sets: Blending (28), Layers (18), View (16), Painting (14), Edit (13), Panels (9), File (8), Select (8), Filters (7), Workflows (3), Help (2).

Does the Krita profile fit my Stream Deck?

Yes — it auto-paginates. Mini needs 26 pages, Neo needs 18 pages, MK.2 needs 9 pages, XL needs 5 pages, + needs 18 pages, + XL needs 4 pages.

Can I rearrange the Krita profile after installing it?

Yes — completely. It installs as 10 folders holding 126 shortcuts, and every one of them is yours from that moment: in the official Elgato Stream Deck app you can drag a key to another slot, rename it, change its icon, move it between folders, add your own actions or delete what you don't use. The layout is a starting point, not a lock.

Which operating systems does the Krita profile support?

macOS and Windows. Each shortcut ships with its platform-specific key combination, so one profile covers both.
