Vector Lightning's recent activity
No option showed up in the Control Panel. Using Win10, I tried to install RW Thumbnails, and well, it did install, but I can't find anything for it in the Control Panel. Any idea what's up? I've seen people asking about this problem on Win8 too.

Yeah, I got the 64bit version, that's the right one. I didn't see the workaround until you pointed it out, but if you're referring to the thing where he renamed RWThumbnailsProxy to a CPL file, that doesn't run for some reason.
Hey, is using Scroll Lock to disable scrolling possible? I ask this unusual request because I draw on my Windows 8 with Touch often, and it always takes drawing as the drag-to-scroll gesture. Perhaps it's fixed in Win10, maybe not, but this would be oh so incredibly useful for those drawing on touchscreens.
from "Online" page Recently my plugins for scanning and printing got uninstalled, and now none of the plugins will install. The Install button is there, and it changes to Uninstall after locking for a moment, but nothing else changes, and after resta...

It seems that the location doesn't matter for the app itself, as long as it's in a place that doesn't require User Account Controlls. If you install in a location like Program Files, where you're going to get the "Sure want to allow this to modify your computer?" alert, that's all that's stopping it. I guess the real problem is that it strangely triggers the U.A.C. bl...
It's not in my user folder, it's in the shared apps folder. Maybe that has something to do with it, but that doesn't explain why it broke but everything else works... Well, I guess reinstalling "just for me" instead of "for everyone" might fix it.
Woah. Switching to Run as Admin fixed all that. Huh. Portable mode seems to fix the bug too, if I move it out of Program Files. ... Weird, that admin thing's new. I guess it's a quirk on my machine. Any info on how to make a shortcut open as admin each time?
I'll see if going portable works. My drive is pretty empty, surprising. And I can't think of what could be interfering... Unless I need to run as Admin? I'll try that first. BRB, testing it.
Not using Icon Editor, but can't you just draw a transparent shape over it with "replace pixels" mode on? (Reason I don't use Icon Editor ever: I found that you can rename PNGs of the right size to ICO and it works just fine on Windows) gonna download and try now
and other outline info I just found a neat little trick I thought was a bug at first. Ever noticed that if you make a vector drawing with smoothing on and try to make two edges line up? If you use the outlines layer effect, you get a perfect Disney-s...

I can do it, but some of my gifs have a TON of frames... What's the best method to caption a gif? Just copying-and-pasting a layer onto each frame? I can do it but it takes a lot of clicks, considering I usually use kinda long animations and just doi...

Thanks a bunch! I really should've noticed that one. DERP. DERP.
Looks like the rectangles turn the other way? I'm not quite sure what's going on but the results were... Not right. Polygons, curvy shapes, and lines worked right but rectangles went the wrong way. Ovals seem to be fine too. Demonstration:

What app are you pasting it from? If it's not RW-Designer, it may not work. I was learning to use Photoshop for a class, and I found that the same thing happens trying to copy and paste images from Photoshop into RW-Paint. If the Photoshop image had empty space, copying to Paint will result in a black background, and vice versa. (Maybe incompatible transparency format...
I know we covered it before but I can't find it... I think we already covered it but I can't find it... maybe it got archived...? Anyway I'm looking for a script that will allow someone to pick two colors, and replace every pixel matching the one wit...

Thank you! 😁 Oh hey look there's an archive... So that's where it went...
Ignores blending mode settings. I noticed a bug, particularly about the layer merge tools and blending mode. I have a lot of layers in this document, and one is a silhouette for another. I was trying to go for something like the example in the link b...

Interesting. Thanks a bunch, for both the change and the tip!
I tried to change stuff. Then I broke it and reinstalled. To this day I have no idea what I did, but I completely removed the left and right panels. Nothing but the canvas, the javascript thing at the bottom, and the toolbars. What is the panel on the left of the Configuration Window, anyway? Is that supposed to represent the window's layout? I'm so confused by it. I'...
