Welcome to TVPaint Community forums !

I recently had a virus invade my computer. After much turmoil, I got everything back to normal. In the process, I somehow lost the sketch panels in TVPaint.

I've attached a screen shot of the empty panels.

Any thoughts or advice on what I can do to get them back? (To no avail, I've uninstalled and reinstalled TVPaint several times, and I rebooted after each uninstall/reinstall.)

Thank you.

hi Toonybrain,
have you try to start up TVPA with a New Config ?

... alternatively, you can try to delete this unworking Sketch Panel clone,
then quit and re-launch TVPA

I advise you to reset your config or create a new one (but then, you will work with a new interface, without your own custom panels / brushes)

I'm not sure where it would be on Windows, but you can find specific bins for just the parts you want to keep of your config. Copy them somewhere safe, and then delete your configs. After you start up with a new config, you can copy the pieces you want back. I do that with my FX Stack bins and particle libraries because they have grown quite detailed and I would hate to have to redo them if I delete my configs.

Thank you ZigO, Elodie, and artfx - I'm good to go! I did the new config suggestion, and I've got my sketch panels back.

Great
