rgbpaint - Page 4

Let's say that is a feature request that would also fix the "drawing with scrollbars on" bug. To make it simple, the pure bugfix is only to block the bars moving while user starts to draw

twobob · 10-02-2013, 06:25 AM

maybe a "position lock" button could be added. would need investigation.

that could additionally strip the scrollbars when activated (as a wild guess) whilst locking the current "location" inside any particular zoom level. As I say, regardless of the mechanism, it's a "new" facility.

Thus feature request

but yeah I suppose you could class the other thing as a bug.

A further look at the code might reveal why the other thing occurs.

Probably running rgbpaint locally on a non-kindle machine could give us a base for "intended operation". Perhaps it is just, oddly, coded that way.

Eheh sorry I'm not good in explaining things in english xD

I think I've not been clear...

This is how to reproduce the bug:
1 - You make a new empty, big canvas, or set the zoom level to 200% (it's the same, you need only the two scrollbars appear)
2 - You try to draw. The very first input you make, let's say the first milliseconds in which you are drawing, you are also moving scrollbars, so you go wrong.
3 - If instead, for example, you touch only the screen without moving the pointer, wait a second, then begin to draw, nothing bad happens and the canvas doesn't move while you are drawing

However I agree that is so a irrelevant bug to consider it almost a feature request

Don't mind anyway, nothing important, only liked to put in this thread a complete bugreport for "user awareness", not a to-do list for you, that you have done still too much for us

Didnt bring my kindles into the wilderness, have to have a look upon my return to twobob towers. this machine is running Windows 7...

(Now where /was/ that linux mint installation disk... hmm)

Then enjoy the wilderness and take a break from kindle!

Meditate, relax, enjoy PURE HD 3D nature resolution, vivid no-glare and no-backlighted colours of flowers, crystal clear sound of birds singing...

That describes where he lives.
His idea of a "Wilderness" is the opposite extreme.

Other little bug found: can't open file that are in other folders then the standard one (keyboard closes too soon)

Hello,
Reviving here a 3 year old thread,but I can't figure it out.

App works fine on a KT3....except I do not grasp how to make my paste stick.
I can cut and copy, even works to a new file, amazing.
The problem arises trying to make it stick to a location, it just doesn't deselect the selection window.
Text input is the same ...won't let me stick it.

Either a.) I can't figure it out...double tap or other weird combination.
Or b.) I'm not the only one having this problem and it needs a fix..in that case a pointer would be helpful

Thx for any information

Wodan,
It's present on my KT3W as well as my older PW1 too.
I succeeded in restarting my KT3W in my efforts to unselect the pasted area!

Seems it's a definite bug which was unnoticed till now.

wodan16 · 08-19-2016, 05:56 PM

Thx for the info.
I can't really tell, from what you are writing, if the paste issue is the same on PW1?
Just to make sure this is not kt3 related, it would be great if you can test that.

nasser · 08-19-2016, 10:39 PM

Same on my pw1. No change.
Also, I was wrong. This issue has been flagged earlier in this thread:

Seeing that you are so good at bugfixing, I report the last bug that, if fixed, could be a nice bonus for a pro-level software:
when zooming or using a too big canvas, scroll bars appear. The problem is that if you try to draw, when you move the cursor it also controls the scrollbars and make you go wrong.
...

There's also a bug after zooming in, as mentioned in the same post. Both bugs don't seem to have been fixed.

wodan16 · 08-20-2016, 07:46 AM

:-),
I read that...just hoped it got fixed afterwards and I'm just too stupid to use it.
that would have been just the killer app for my kindle.
anyway this thread looks like it was abandoned over night.

thank you for your time my friend.

Almost, she graduated and was offered a job too good to miss out on.
