Feedback Verve(v0.99v.14)

[Taron]

Man, Pilou, don't forget to have some fun with painting something when you take a break from scouring color palettes. (By the way, isn't English confusing? You may have a color palette used on a color pallet?)
While a palette is a table of stuff, a pallet is the board on which you put colors and mix them... like an artist's pallet. I'm so confused by that somehow.

Anyway... paint a little! It's fun!

Sure ...but...It's not my blue period!

And I prefere this sort of Palett
like a box of chocolates!
Hoppefully I have a big screen!
(in fact a Latop + external monitor so I can extend the Verve canvas!

For me more practical than the Color Wheel!


I know i that I can put this image on the left but orthodox 256 palett don't make dust!
And don't fall down on the floor because vertical position is some dangerous equilibrium!

[Taron]

In the next version you can scale the swatches!

And a little number above each "round" swatches for the number of colors inside?
so 256 will be a big palett
4 a very mini one!

[Taron]

Errrrr....I'll think about it, but don't count on it, please!

Reload fucks up active layer? Don't know but only happens on reload.

I had that once before in this project. On reload the active layer is broken. Interestingly it is same on incremental version before. It seems that the layer was already somehow invisible destroyed?
Luckily I had one version which was fine and a png back up for sure

Well, shit!
Ok, I'll have a look at it!
...just don't overwrite the file, yet!

...I can't reproduce it! Hmmm...could you somehow send me the file (wetransfer or so)?

[Taron]

Yeah, I still can't figure it out. I got your file and added a layer underneath the top layer, painted a little, saved the thing, reloaded it and it's still fine. I can't tell at all what happened there?
Have you maybe moved it or some undo thing or so... hmmm... still gotta play around some more, but thus far...really weird. It's certainly something I have to figure out!

Probably one of those unhappy mistakes only happening under very specific conditions.
Best is to watch out and report the excact conditions.
Maybe its just this project. Anyway everything is fine now.
Saving incremental and sometimes saving a png, or all layers as png can't never harm too.
Saved me today from loosing a lot just because of a stupid mistake of mine.

Thanks for your efforts, taron.

[Taron]

Pity the mistake remains unknown, because I really want to help make such things impossible. Ah well...no use to speculate at this point.
Anyway, I'm doing some fun stuff right now and improve certain things along the way. The next version will be interesting!

By the way... in the current version the color swatches are already scaling, if you hold [Ctrl] while on the moving field (circle in upper left corner!).
