Would be a nice feature but will be much more work then just enlarging the brush icons to 72 pixels.

There is none.
You can remap your keyboard which is described somewhere on the forum
Or you can change the mypaint acceleration keys in /home/user/.mypaint/accelmap.conf through the X-terminal and a texteditor or through the gtk_menu which is described earlier by Tone. This is the easiest way and described here. You can create the gtk_menu file by starting X-Terminal and enter:
Code:
touch .mypaint/gtk_menu
Note that you will have to restart Mypaint or do it before you start Mypaint. This will give you the standard gtk menu but also the standard dialogs for opening and saving files which you might not like. To get the N900 menu back again you will have to remove the file by opening X-Terminal and entering:
Code:
rm .mypaint/gtk_menu

PS. if you change the accelmap.conf file directly you have to remove the semicolons at the start of the lines you edited.

Have been playing with these settings. And wanted to know, do we really need shortcuts for these:
NoDoubleBuffereing" ""
ColorMenu" ""
Context09s" ""
LayerMenu" ""
PrintInputs" ""
FileMenu" ""
BrushMenu" ""
Context09" ""
ViewMenu" ""
Quit" ""
EditMenu" ""
ShortcutHelp" ""
DebugMenu" ""
Docu" ""
ContextMenu" ""
VisualizeRendering" ""

Here what I have for the rest, What do you guys think?:

@pasih nice post

I have no issue with the eyedrop tool staying on screen and i allso use it alot.

The .ora extension thats missing in gimp can be fixed with a plugin called file-ora.py. I had the same issue about not being able to open drawings in gimp. It took me some time to figure out how to make it work but with some search on the net it worked out.
You can get the plugin here:
http://registry.gimp.org/node/18435
You just follow the insruction and put it where it says to put it. You have to make it executable by typing in xterm:
chmod +x file-ora.py
after that it should work (I'm not sure if you have to be root to do this command)

Btw nice drawing/painting

I assume that you are talking about this one on the pic.

I've changed mine to 'w' as you can see.
Anyway thats the one i was referring to as eyedrop tool and it just shows the color and when i release the key it goes away.
So if thats the one it works fine

Hi!
Thanks, pasih!
Very nice painting!

I am very glad that more and more people dare to show
their artworks...

Ok, I have no "much" problems with <ctrl> key pick color.. it is actually very nice. I have also config "R" -key to Pick Color.

I do not know but did anybody use <ctrl>+<arrow keys> to rotate canvas.. I just figured out that it is configurated this way..
very easy to rotate and you do not have to sacrify those precious keys for that task.

ALSO I made changes for "moving=dragging" canvas conf key..
it is fixed for <space>bar but I found it very had to use.. because it is so far away...

SO I have modified
/home/opt/mypaint/share/mypaint/gui/drawwindows.py file.

if key == keysyms.space:
if ctrl:
self.tdw.start_drag(self.dragfunc_rotate)
else:
self.tdw.start_drag(self.dragfunc_translate)
else: return False
return True
def key_release_event_cb_before(self, win, event):
if event.keyval == keysyms.space:
self.tdw.stop_drag(self.dragfunc_translate)
self.tdw.stop_drag(self.dragfunc_rotate)
return True
return False


I replaced <space> to q -key so I can easily reach that when I draw.. now it is very easy to moving around canvas

EDIT: I assume that if you are Left-handed you are fine with <space>bar dragging canvas

I also modified "rotation degree" now it is 22.5. so I can rotate
between landscape and portrait. (drawwindow.py - about line 900)

and Erase works now old way, its not change size when toggle eraser mode (drawwindow.py - about line 100) 0 replaces 3*(0.3)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dousan - thanks for GIMP .ora file extension tip.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have now updated my flickr account... there is now...
my old scraps! I dare to show couple of them..

New ones are coming...

I try to learn more and more about painting and drawing, colors, lightning, etc.

@pasih i assumed wrong lol

Mine stays on screen aswell after releasing the ctrl key and have to press v or c to get it to go away

@Tone didn't i see you use it in the vid you made outside mypaint and it changed color according to the background. Maybe i'm wrong about that, but i tried it and it didn't work for me with the ctrl key pressed down

e: @Tone thanks for the tip about the toggle eraeser i couldn't find the value in the thread that someone else posted a while back. Found out yesterday about the ctrl arrows to rotate. I wanted to move the canvas and it rotated? Clumbsy thumbs
Oh and thanks for the info on drag canvas

Hi, Dousan!

Pick Color | Method 1
---------------------------
It do not work with <ctrl> hold down,, you just release <ctrl> when the color box stays and then switch to the another
window... and then (another window example background or something... press <ctrl> down and hold it+start dragging at color box to the color what you want. I hope that this makes sense

<ctrl> works bit differently than the one I used in video... then I did not even now that you can use <ctrl> to pick color

Pick Color | Method 2
---------------------------
with Pick Color tool "R is mine key" you just hold it down.. and switch window and color pox stays on the screen.. and this one you
dont have to hold any keys down when selecting colors just
start draggin at color box to the destination

I am sorry if this is bit confusing explanation..
tell me if you catch it?

@pasih, funny never even notice that the crtl key also pick color. Thanks learn something new, however I still prefer the standard r key since I use the crtl key for a lot of shortcuts. nice drawing/painting!

@Dousan, thanks for the posting this. It took awhile when I installed it a few weeks ago (I thought ppl already knew about), but it's worth the trouble since it's the only way to get work off the phone more or less (I think).

@Tone, great mods. I did the rotation, eraser and the move tool mods to mine. I think it silly to make q into quit since we have a big'O X in the corner, that works nice. thanks Also lov'n your sketches very cool.
