For some reason, when I use Oekaki my mouse cursor disappears? This started happening about 2 weeks ago, and I have no idea what’s causing it. I am using a custom mouse cursor but it worked fine for the previous few months I used it, so I know that’s not the problem. I’m using Google Chrome, and all of my drivers are updated on my tablet.

In addition to this, I can only access some of the features of Chicken Paint (I’ll just call it CP) with my tablet pen? For example, I can switch layers, Draw, change tools, change tool sizes, and toggle pen pressure, but I can’t delete or rename layers, use the color dropper, or use the drop downs at the top of CP. This all started happening around the same time as the mouse cursor problem.

None of this happens in any of my other art programs (MediBang, Sai, ClipStudio, And FireAlpaca), so I know it’s definitely a problem with Oekaki, I just have no clue what’s causing it.

    @PikaPerfect -- That is exactly the issue I am having with Google Chrome and Chibipaint right now as well!
    @Medd - this is the issue I'm experiencing with Firefox and Chibipaint as well.

I updated Firefox recently to Firefox 53 to see if it would do any better or if it would fix the current issue I'm having with Chibipaint + Firefox. There's no change in it whatsoever but I have pin pointed that it is for certain the pen pressure not working. Basically what is happening is that when I go to draw with any tool with the "pen pressure" button clicked it automatically makes the lines drawn pt. 1 or 2 in size. It doesn't matter if the pen, eraser, airbrush or any other tool is set to 200 pt in size it still makes 1 or 2 pt thick lines. I'll provide a screenshot to show the settings versus the line drawn here as well. It's ridiculous really and not use-able this way. Nick, please help, I don't know if this is an error happening in Chibipaint in accordance to browser updates as of recent or what. But obviously it's not just my brand of tablet (ugee) since others have mentioned Wacom tablets having issues with this same problem.

Please help, this is making things really difficult and I'm having to resort to using Microsoft Edge for creating adoptables, drawings or any sort of oekaki drawing. And Edge is awful, it freezes and refreshes itself numerous times without my consent and has lost me 4-7 oekaki drawings (roughly 7-12 hours worth of drawings).

Oekaki/Java problems & solutions

Hi
I want to go downstairs and eat, so I go ahead and save my drawing. I'm on Internet Explorer because pen pressure won't work on Chrome for some reason. And then I find this...

I believe switching to a different version of Oekaki usually solves that issue. You can do that here. Using ChickenPaint on Chrome should hopefully solve your issue of saving + your pen pressure issue. c:

Thanks! I switched from Chibipaint v.1 to v.2 and it helped me save, as I tested earlier. On the other hand, I still can't save the drawing I was working on, perhaps because the canvas was on v.1 before I switched it. Is there no other solution other than to reload and start over?

I don't think there's another solution unfortunately, I think you may just have to start over as you said. I'm glad switching over helped you though!

So, I'm very pleased that chicken paint works on mobile, because I can draw well with my finger, and I'm hoping to get back into oekaki. But the problem is I cannot move the canvas. The scroll bar or two fingers do not work. The zoom in and out buttons either make it the size of a postage stamp or too too close! Anything that can be done?

i dont know if you guys are aware but in recent releases of Firefox they no longer support java, had to use Microsoft edge.

That's why Nick coded Chicken Paint (Chrome and other browsers were shutting down Java support) - it doesn't require Java - you can switch to it here, especially if you prefer using Firefox.
