color panel gone! TV 12

Post by hellofilms »

Hi,
I am testing the new TVpaint 12. it´s exciting, but some things happens that you did not expect.

I move the color panel as a floating panel. I had it so for all the time with TVP11. Now when I restart the software the color panel is gone. Selecting the icon or meny option to show does not help. Can´t find it anywhere. Hard to work when you can´tget access to the colorpanel.

Are there no reset to normal view button or so?

I got it back by resetting the config-file in the prefs.
But when I moved the colorpanel to the right of the canvas and restarted the color Panel was gone and no where to find.
Is this a bug?

Hello, maybe it went into the right hand drawer or got stuck under your canvas' window?
Is its icon highlighted in the top toolbar?

I really looked everywhere. You expect it would be at the same spot where you left it. odd.
I found that you could reset panel position in the refence-settings. That will be "rescue" when it dissappear next time. Would be good to have that panel reset button in a meny to have quicker access to it.

Another observation regarding how the interface is saved.
As mentioned earlier if I put the color panel to the right of the canvas it was gone when restart TVpaint.
If I moved custom panels to the right of the canvas, the where to be found in the top left corner of the screen when restart.
If I redock the color panel and put it to the left of the canvas it will stay there when restart so there is something strange happening when putting panels to the right of the canvas that not will be saved correct.
