I can't draw lines on TV paint. Only dots.

Post by lucym »

Hi
I ran the TV paint recently and I found out I only can draw dots and not lines.
It was fine a half year ago.

Does anyone know how to fix this? :cry:

I just noticed how counter-intuitive the keyboard shortcuts are: S for dot, D for stroke ...

I think it was D for Draw.
But S ? I've got no idea.... Maybe we should unassign this key BTW : the Dot issue appears quite often in my opinion.
