* recompiled with faster CFLAGS (seems faster at least)
-------------------------------------------------trying to implement
- hildon banner show information when command key is pressed (e.g. zoomlevel)

Great! Can you make a diff and post it, and I'll update my sources.
I think we have to #ifdef Hildon-specific changes (or what's the best way to do this)... And contact the original author.
I won't have time to look at this until tonight (swedish time). Keep on hacking...
:-)
Thanks Anders

drawwindow.py

If you want to test these, first back-up

/usr/share/mypaint/python/drawwindow.py

then copy this version over it.

For those with N810s here's a little cheat-sheet for the keyboard controls:

I just made these changes to suit my tastes, really. Feel free to use them if you like them of course!

Any chance this could be made to work on OS2007?

Beautiful drawing, this program and Numptyphysics have redefined my tablet use over the last few days.

Within the first half-hour of use, I had remapped every key that I'd used more than once already -- Z for undo, . (dot) for clear, J I L ; for the scroll directions.

I wonder though what reliance on the keyboard does for N800 use — and I'm expecting my two kids to want to tablet-draw at the same time (it's the nature of siblings, right?).

Maybe a customizable tool palette could be kept on-screen so a single tap performs one of those actions or any other that one really wants — a couple brushes, the opacity dialog, zoom, brush size, etc. Even show the main menu, to enable a consistent "tap" interface.

This isn't a complaint — having MyPaint is so fabulous I'm just anticipating dealing with the family demand.

Me, I'm still tryijng to figure out the difference between Speed1 and Speed2. I hope we can get an expanded How-To soon for the NIT version.
