Please test for Mark and feedback . . .
in particular those with a wacom tablet - I have one
will it work with Puppy?
You can download for testing, seems as stable as always already . . .
http://www.yourfilehost.com/media.php?c ... nt-2.09.24
This is Marks email - you need to use Start / Utilities / Mtools to gunzip2 (decompress) the above file - once downloaded
I compiled the latest binary just now which I have attached. You should be
able to run it with:
bunzip2 mtpaint-2.09.24.bz2
./mtpaint-2.09.24
Its just a basic compilation so theres no language translation stuff, but
thanks to the programs simplicity it can just run from a single binary file
(still under 350K!) Although it seems to work fine for me, I still think it
needs more testing before a final release so if you give it to your friends
remind them of its beta status.
Here is the fragment from the NEWS file:
* Support for pressure sensitive tablets via Preferences window, see 'Tools'
in docs
* Colour histogram added to Information window (Ctrl-I)
* Palette->Create Quantized (Wu) method added - Good for small palettes e.g.
32
* Convert to Indexed window improved
* View window now has focus toggle to keep locked on the main window centre
position
* Info window now counts all colours in RGB images - if 16MB memory is
available
* Preferences window is now non-modal and has an apply button
* ./src/Makefile simplified
* Brazilian Portuguese translation contributed by Paulo Trevizan
* BUGFIX - memory leak with DL1 Quantize & Floyd-Steinberg fixed
* BUGFIX - stopped segfault when pressing * and - keys simultaneously in pan
window
* BUGFIX - segfault fixed when using read only filesystems with no
~/.mtpaint write access
If you have got your tablet working in the Gimp then mtPaint should work
with it too as they both use the same GTK+ methods. It took me a little
practice to get used to the pressure sensitivy, but once mastered its a lot
of fun. Let me know if there are any problems.
Regards,
Mark.
