JujuSketch 0.00001
Sunday, July 16th, 2006
For a possibly limited time only [depending on how many complaints I get about it being confusing ;)] you can download the latest test version of Jujusketch:
NOTE: that it requires WINTAB[32].DLL to be installed— ie you must already have a graphics tablet. Also it has been tested with only two type of tablet so far, Wacom and Genius, and already there are observable differences— tablet drivers seem to date back to the dark ages of Windows :( If anyone knows of another API I should be using please let me know.
Keyboard shortcuts:
P: Toggle pressure sensitivity
S: lasso select mode
D: draw mode
Ctrl+C: copy all or selected (should place meta data on clipboard which can paste into office etc)
Space: toggle stroke or fill mode
W/K: Set color to White/Black
R/G/B: Mix color to Red/Green or Blue
Ctrl + pen: Pan
Shift + pen: Zoom/Rotate
Backspace: delete last shape.
Ctrl+Z/Y: Undo/Redo
Alt-PgDown/PgUp: Move to next/previous picture in sketchbook folder
etc…lots of temp/test stuff in there… if you end up in some weird mode just close and restart :)
You just run the executable (there is no install process and it should be happy to run from any location). It will create a Sketchbook folder in My Documents where it will automatically save your drawings.

Yayy!! Maybe you should do another screencast so people can see it in action??

actually it’s pretty similar to what it was like when I did the last screencast— which didn’t really come out so well but gives a pretty good idea of what it’s about.
PS: Holy crap that was more than a year ago!

Sounds awesome, don’t suppose a mac port is anywhere in the works though? :/
I might have to borrow someone else’s computer to give it a try…

I’m afraid there’ll be no mac ports until I get
a) a mac
b) a lot more free time :(

Hmmm… I was kind of hoping Jujusketch would run okay on my tablet pc.
But apparently these machines aren’t using the wintab32.dll that’s needed… (despite having tablet tech et al) Pity. [:-(]

And I was kind of hoping the Windows Tablet API would also work for PCs with graphics tablets :( I’ll look into it again, maybe I’ve missed something (I would love to ditch wintab32.dll)

I have a feeling no one has actually been able to run this yet :( most disheartening…

Mark,
It runs fine for me. Crashes once in a while for no apparent reason but I think that concept of it is neat. I was looking forward to you releasing a copy after you posted the screencast a while ago.
