Ah ok, I will try gtk_menu later!

I just found a problem on saving my file... It has two layers, but i cant save it as .ora or .jpg ... I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/mypaint/share/mypaint/gui/filehandling.py", line 259, save_as_cb(self=<gui.filehandling.FileHandler object at 0x4268fd70>, action=<gtk.Action object at 0x43711b20 (GtkAction at 0x1a3ae78)>)

edit: merging the layers also didnt work... I am sorry that I wont be able to provide more information,but i have to go... I use the maemo10 version by the way.

Hi!
apol657 - I am using maemo10 and I have no problems to save the files with layers or not. Interesting.. hmm.

object - very nice painting... "android" n-900? :D ... grrr... I must learn to draw.. figuratives.

harp - I do not mind if you attach images :).. I like to see what you can do with this great painting app.

okey..im a long time reader but this is my first post and question about this nice piece of software..
after a lot of try and error I was able to get this thing to work.

but after the update to maemo10 I cant get it to start up again...
and when I try to start the app using xterm I get the following error:

/home/user # mypaint
process 5247: arguments to dbus_connection_get_data() were incorrect, assertion "connection != NULL" failed in file dbus-connection.c line 5757.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

Aborted

Does anyone know what kind of error this is? And is it easy fixable;)?

Thx in advance!!

I presume you are trying to run it as root. Don't do that... Run as user.

Re: Mypaint-0.7.1 for Fremantle
 

I see!! thx for your quick reply...but..Now I get a new error:P

I have to add that I am a bit noobish deciphering these logs..

Re: Mypaint-0.7.1 for Fremantle
 

When you ran mypaint as root the .mypaint directory got wrong file permissions
remove the old .mypaint directory
as root:
cd /home/user/
rm -R .mypaint/
exit

I've remaped my keyboard to include pageup, page down, home and end + tab too. It make getting around site and document list just about every thing easier. It's not hard, you just have to make sure you do it right.

A post that help me here


I don't mine either, but don't forget post them the thread you started Look what I drew on my phone thread .... to keep that going too ... :D

Just thought I add to what Dousan said; in that with the gtk_menu on after you tap once you can use the arrow keys to navigate to the menu item you want to change, now you have both hand availible to make a shortcuts like shift-fn-P or whatever you can think of. It a lot easier this way for me. Unless I'm stating the obvious....lol oops.

Re: Mypaint-0.7.1 for Fremantle
 

Thanks for your interest Tone! Ok everything got magically working after the gtk_menu! It could be a coincidence,or not idk... But what matters is that now i can save files, make shortcuts and have fullscreen(and a very small working menu at the same time if i want :D)! Mypaint became even more awesome with your help people,thanks again!!!

By the way as i see many of you know very much about mypaint, do you know how to save to *.ora again after i saved to *.jpg ? I tried save as file.ora but it creates a file named file.ora.jpg .I can always save as *.ora before exporting to jpg and then restart mypaint and open the *.ora file and saving format reverts to *.ora again... So its not that important, just kinda useful..
