Dear all,
Let me thank very much for your efforts, there are users who follow this thread even without having too many computer skills to get involved directly. I wonder if it wouldn't be easier to create a dedicated webpage to this project, where the latest an greatest of the versions would be uploaded, along with the necessary instructions. I raise this suggestion because (although being very helpful and informative), this thread is getting larger and larger, and I read very often: "see the previous messages". For a few messages it would not be a problem, but with already 8 pages one can easily overlook important information and advice. Thanks again, I appreciate very much your work, Adrian |

Question, so it looks like me reader timed out while my xournal was open and now it can't reopen the file. Does this normally happen? Is there a way to get the file uncorrupted or is it just gone now?

no luck, deleted a metadata.db file that was in the folder (didn't have one with the -journal) but the file still comes up as can not open when I try to open it through Xournal. Quite odd

(Although that file should have been loaded automatically the next time you started xournal.) You might also need to look in other locations (folder were document was located?), the code uses: "g_get_current_dir()", I am not sure what that will result into when xournal is started via the ctb. (I better change the code to a fixed location.) |

New update Xournal V5
I created a new update for Xournal. Given the requests above, I created a new thread to post Xournal updates. This allows me to add updates in the first message so people can more easily find the latest version of Xournal.

This just gets better all the time.
Now that I'm starting to use it more often, I think I'll try a variety of screen protectors as I find writing with the pens a bit "slippery". I thnk I need a bit of stiction. Well done Mackx |

I think this is really good work. Thank you.
I think this is nearly perfect. If it was possible to annotate pdf's I think that really would be the icing on the cake. The only other thing would be the ability to export the journal to MyScript notes. I realise both of these are probably a real stretch or indeed not possible Anyway, thank you for all of they hard work. It is very much appreciated. |

Mackx a.o.,
thanks for your reply, helps me a bit further! I am using V4 on a daily basis to take notes in meetings and during other conversations. There seems to be a pattern in the lock-ups, since they always appear after ca. 30-40 mins and after i have written a couple of pages (and have saved many times ;-). Could there be some kind of buffer that becomes overloaded after that period of time? Another genuine improvement would be if the page buttons on the DR would actually move a full page in Xournal, instead of just a single line. They should do what the on-screen buttons on the top do. Regards, Dik |

Page up/down works if you use menu:View->One Page and then press the up/down buttons long enough to get a 'long tap' (led get less intensive), this is the DR-way to generate a GDK_Page_Up/Down event. More people complain about the behaviour of the keys in Xournal, so I have put ot on my ToDo-list, Xournal is originally written for PC, so it assumes a full keyboard. Note: I normally have all keys disabled when I am working with Xournal (I put the Next/Prev DR-menu-items in the toolbar) since that is the best way to avoid the crash. Although I can imagine that (right handed people) leave the left-hand side keys enabled. |
