To Charlie...
I did what you suggested and put wacom .drv files in my wacom pets
and this made the my slacko wacom version work. I got the file from your package.
Where did you get the wacom .drv file?

I haven't had any problems with mtpaint 3.34.78. You have a different
tablet than mine. Is it serial rather than USB? That might
explain the problem, since to the wacom engineers serial tablets
are dead technology so they probably don't do enough testing
of their source package.

I'm doing some mtpaint tutorials recently and mtpaint 3.34.78
has been working fine.

You should try compiling it yourself with the 'default' configuration.
You can try the latest Exprimo which has mtpaint 3.34.78 inside

I appreciate your reports.

New handbook for mtpaint 3.40

#19 Post by don570 »

New handbook for 3.40 is available here as a pet package.
I have corrected the pinstall script so
that there is a warning to not install with mtpaint running.

I looked at the the manual and it has been changed quite a bit.
I need to sit down and read it again.
But arrowheads still aren't explained very well. :cry:

Portable application of mtpaint 3.40 for testing - no installation needed, after download just make the file executable and click on it to run.

(please do not try to strip this file as it is not the correct file type for this operation)

new version

#21 Post by don570 »

There's a new version of mtpaint 3.44.03

I upgraded to version 3.44.03.

I didn't notice any new features after testing it for a few hours,

but it's very good. I recommend it highly.

Hi,
again many thankX for this new version !
works nice on Exprimos flavours with corresponding wacom input drivers !

Just to mention this:
while editing a drawing, if the UNDO/REDO function seems not being enabled (yellow «undo/redo arrows» keep grey), just go in Menu/Image/Preferences, or press Ctrl-P, and, there, in the "General" thumbnail, just increase the value in the 1st field "Maximum memory used for undo buffer".
(this occurs on rather large files).
(I spent about one afternoon verifying dependencies and so on, to at least find out something somewhat ... trivial !)

Cheers
Charlie
