Krita/Manual/Layerstyles

From KDE Wiki Sandbox

The only feature ported from Photoshop, Layerstyles are a quick way to add a variety of simple filters to a given layer.

As many studios and proffesionals work in an enviroment where these are ubiquitous, Krita supports them so you can have a proper file exchange with your collegues and clients.
