JujuSketch 0.00001
[cross-posted to intepid.com]
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.

When I run the exe, it shows the following error message. What could be wrong/missing? I do have a graphics tablet installed - MG Logic Pte. Ltd.

That message happens when DLL files fail to “start”, and suggests that the wintab32.dll used by your tablet is incompatible with the versions Jujusketch was built for… this is not entirely unexpected, because there are definite differences between drivers. Unfortunately I know of know way to fix it :(
(except to try using a totally different interface for future versions, if I can work out how)
